Co-op Month 2019

Co-op Month 2019
Co-op Month has been celebrated annually in October across the United States for more than half a century. It is a time for cooperative businesses to reflect on their shared principles and to educate others about the value of belonging to a cooperative.
 
The theme for this year was "‘By the Community and For the Community’. As I was working on some other projects relating to Co-op month, I remembered a conversation that I had with an employee a couple months ago. He mentioned how “cool” it was that not only does the Co-op support our community, but that we also have many of our employees involved in local organizations and groups in our communities.  Many are active participants or leaders in those groups. They participate not for the glory or praise, but because they are willing to get involved and take on responsibilities. It is these same characteristics that exemplify their value as employees of the cooperative. Here is their story: Co-op-MOnth-2019-employee-article

One of the benefits of doing business with a Cooperative is the profits are paid back to the members. Profits are paid back in two ways, cash patronage and equity retirements. The equity portion is used to fund the Co-op. After a period of years and as the finances of the Co-op allow, this money is returned to the members. Last month, Country Visions mailed over $4.1 million in equity retirement checks to members. The Board of Directors of Country Visions are committed to continued revolvement of equities on a timely basis.
