More information and requirements

Please note that someone in your group must have a Prairie Co-op membership to participate in this program, and that your group’s purpose should align with Prairie Co-op’s values of Excellence | Integrity | Progressive.

Prairie Co-op, like other community-minded businesses, receives numerous requests for donations. Please allow a minimum of 2 weeks to review your requests and respond. We work hard to assist in as many community organizations as possible, however due to the high volume of requests received, not all worthwhile proposals will be approved. Such a response does not reflect upon the value of your organization and the valuable service you provide.
