Farmers Coop Society has recently contributed to 53 local fire departments across their trade territory. They are giving these donations on behalf of their customers who completed a recent survey. Each participant was able to specifically choose where a contribution could be made from a list of 80 fire departments across their trade territory. For every completed survey FCS would contribute $10 on their behalf.
A check for $330.00 was recently presented to Sanborn Fire Department.
