Our vision is to make a real difference to the communities we serve, so community is at the heart of everything we do together with our members.

How we help charities and community causes

Giving back is at the heart of our values. We support various worthy causes through:

• donating to projects which support our local communities and environment through our Coop Community Fund and Coop Community Impact Fund
• hosting bag packing and charity awareness days in our stores 
• supporting charities through our collection boxes and food donation box schemes 
• supporting local groups with fundraising prizes and small sponsorship
• providing corporate sponsorship to events and organisations
• our colleagues working throughout the year to raise money for various local organisations and initiatives
• giving discounts each year to support the Jersey's elderly community through David Kirsch's voucher initiative.

As well as putting the local community at our heart, our business focuses on environmental responsibility, animal welfare, ethical trading, and choosing Fairtrade when we buy from producers in the developing world.
