GreenTree is a cooperative organization and we do our best to use the 7 Cooperative principles to guide our actions. One of these principles, number 7, explicitly calls on us to engage with and support positive development of the community within which we operate.
One of the ways we participate in Principle 7 and show our concern for community is with our Register Round up program. This program allows our Owners and shoppers to round up their shopping trip to the nearest dollar (or higher) in support of a community organization. In the past we have supported the Detroit People’s Food Co-op, Dalis to the Rescue, Great Lakes Bay Pride, and others. Small donations by individuals can really add up to a big impact for these organizations when we work together, cooperatively!
Your organization can apply to be a recipient by filling out and submitting this form.
Due to the support of our Owners and shoppers we have been able to donate $9,344.08 so far!
