Discovery Co-op put out the call and the community answered. As part of Fuel Good Day on Sept. 19, six cents from every litre of fuel purchased at the Discovery Co-op Gas Bars were donated to the Battlefords Union Hospital Foundation. At the end of the day, Discovery Co-op members and customers helped raise $6310.27. Pictured from left to right are Dave Rogers - Discovery Co-op C/Store division manager, Mike Nord - Discovery Co-op general manager, Claudette McGuire - executive director of BUH Foundation and Shawn Adair - Discovery Co-op operations manager. Discovery Co-op is committed to serving the community and giving back, not just on this but throughout the year, said Nord. “Fuel Good Day is one of the many ways we fuel our communities, whether it’s by sharing profits with our members or supporting local organizations that are doing important work right here in our own backyard. Since 2016, Discovery Co-op returned $1,436,528 million to its members in cash back and equity payments and contributed more than $156,000 to local organizations and causes. Fuel Good Day, was celebrated at more than 380 Co-op Gas Bars throughout British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and northwest Ontario, each supporting a selected local charitable or non-profit organization or initiative. The combined result from across Western Canada will be released later in October. Photo submitted
