Our Director of Enterprise & Commercial Sales and CCNC Board Member, Susan Chatham, attended the Cooperative Council of North Carolina’s Annual Meeting and Conference on March 25th and 26th. The Cooperative Conference is a 2-day event for Council members to come together and learn from one another. Susan had the opportunity to participate in engaging discussions about the needs of cooperatives in North Carolina and how we can better our communities.
At the conference, Mechele Laugel from the Coastal Credit Union Foundation presented a $25,000 check to Emma Hayes, CCNC Board Chairman, and Sara Coats, CCNC Executive Director.
The grant will be used to conduct a cooperative research impact study on cooperatives across the state of NC to assess the impact that cooperatives have on families, jobs, and the economy.
