Choptank Electric Trust awarded Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry a $1,845 grant to help feed people struggling with hunger in Somerset and Wicomico Counties in Maryland.
One of the 7 Cooperative Principles of being a cooperative is Concern for Community. As a Co-op, the quality of life for their members and the community has always been at the center of what they do. Based on that Cooperative Principle, Choptank Electric Cooperative adopted Operation Round Up ® as their community assistance program in 2004. Operated as the non-profit Choptank Electric Trust, Inc., this is a simple and rewarding way to enable members to contribute funds for local charities, needy individuals, and service organizations.
On behalf of FHFH and those in Somerset and Wicomico Counties who struggle with hunger, we thank Choptank Electric Trust for their generosity and support of our mission to end hunger.
