Financially
The Lawrenceville Co-Op depends on financial contributions by churches, individuals, and local businesses and organizations. Donations are used to purchase food when donated food is insufficient and pay for operational expenses. Your dollar stretches much further with us as we can purchase bulk quantities of items for significantly less than the typical grocery shopper.
To make donating money easier for individuals, we offer a secure online donation option through PayPal (2.5% fee) or Venmo (2.1% fee). QR codes are below. You can also utilize your online banking for a one time or recurring payment. If you prefer to donate by writing a check, please make it payable to Lawrenceville Cooperative Ministry and mail it to PO Box 1328, Lawrenceville GA 30046.
Please note – we are having postal issues. Several donors have had checks returned with the correct address on it and several checks have come in months after they were mailed. If your check has not cleared, please contact Paula at p.anderson@lawrencevilleco-op.org so we can follow up.
