Twin Brooks Employees Present Donation to Christian Service Council of Grant County
As part of its commitment to serving local communities’ food security needs, Agtegra Cooperative has donated monetary resources to 27 food pantries across North and South Dakota.
 
“As an agricultural cooperative, we pride ourselves in our role in helping feed the world,” says Agtegra CEO Jason Klootwyk. “As a community-focused organization, we must make sure our communities have access to food as well.”
 
Agtegra supports communities through targeted efforts that provide food resources in the areas where its employees and member-owners live and work. By partnering with civic, nonprofit, and non-governmental organizations, Agtegra can support food insecurities and aid in providing access to nutritious food by donating to the community- or county-based food pantry organizations within its trade territory.
 
“Being a local cooperative means supporting our local communities. We are proud to support the food pantries in the communities we live and work in,” says Klootwyk.
 
Through a Land O’Lakes Foundation grant, Agtegra was able to double its donations to these
community food pantries.
