The Silver City Food Co-op has a community donation program called the Round Up Program where customers can round up the balance of their total purchase to the nearest dollar and donate that amount to a local non-profit. Gila Resources Information Project was the April recipient receiving $1,460.00.

Each month, the Silver City Food Co-op announces the current non-profit recipient. There is information at each register about the group, and each recipient has brochures about their organization available at the front of the Co-op. The recipient is also available at least once per month in the Co-op to talk to member/owners and customers about their organization. In May the Round Up recipient is the Bikeworks.

The Silver City Food Co-op is proud of our cashiers who make this program work so we can give to our community. Many thanks to the members and customers who generously donate to this program each month. The Silver City Food Co-op follows the seven cooperative principles including Concern for Community and we strive to connect in meaningful ways to our community.

The mission of the Silver City Food Co-op is to provide and distribute high quality products and to promote cooperative and nutritional education to our members-owners, our customers, and our community.
