RALEIGH, N.C. — AgCarolina Farm Credit is proud to announce a $2,000 donation to the Me Fine Foundation.
AgCarolina employees have the option to participate in “A Cause a Quarter” each quarter. The quarterly campaign requires a $25 donation from participating employees to a non-profit voted on by all employees of the association. Participants are able to wear jeans each Friday of the quarter in which they participate.
Chosen by employees for the first quarter of 2019 was the Me Fine Foundation, an organization that functions to assist families with children in medical crises. With employee and Association contributions, the total donation amount is $2,000.
“Community involvement and assisting others is a cornerstone of our cooperative,” said AgCarolina CEO Dave Corum. “AgCarolina and our employees are committed to being a good steward of our resources. A Cause a Quarter is the product of an employee suggestion and has been a great way for our team to understand how we can all work together to make an impact. We are grateful for the positive impact made by Me Fine Foundation and wish them great success in the future.”
