SOUTHEAST — Â鶹´«Ã½AVern Plains Co-op's Fuel Good Day held on Sept. 17 at the co-op gas bars in Estevan, Carlyle and Oxbow was once again a big success.
"Thanks to your support and generosity, we raised a total of $6,987.96 for local organizations across our communities," the co-op said on its website.
The funds will be split between three organizations.
The Estevan Early Years Family Resource Centre will receive $3,439.70 for their free family programs and supports.
The Carlyle Curling Club will be presented with a cheque for $2,544.43 to help fund their youth curling program.
The Oxbow Rink will add $1,003.83 to their account to go towards the new ice plant.
The funds were collected through the co-op's Fuel Good Day initiative, with 10 cents per litre of fuel sold and all proceeds from their $1 coffee sales going towards the local total.
"Every litre of fuel and every cup of coffee added up to make a big difference in these communities," the co-op said.
"We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to stop by and support Fuel Good Day. Your participation helps these organizations continue their important work, and together, we're making a real impact—one litre at a time.
"Let's keep fueling the good in our communities," the organization added.
