Fonterra farmers can now use Farm Source Reward Dollars to donate to three great causes

When times are tough, Fonterra farm owners can now support each other and their communities - that's what being part of a Co-op is all about says Farm Source. Right now, many in the communities we live and work in could do with some of that help.

Recently Micha Johansen who farms in Eketahuna went to Farm Source with an idea...what if Farm Source Reward Dollars could be donated to charity? They thought it was a brilliant idea.

 

We (Rural Support Trust) are excited to be part of the Farm Source's Charitable Giving initiative.

It is where Fonterra farmers can now donate Farm Source Reward Dollars to - Meat The Need NZ,

New Zealand Food Network and us, the Rural Support Trust

Every donated dollar counts!
