October is National Cooperative month! The 2022 theme is ‘Co-ops Build Economic Power.’ Basically, a co-op is a business organized, owned and controlled by the people who use its services. There are cooperatives in many service and retail industries. You may be a member of a utility or food co-op for example. And now, The Local Crowd is currently working on the structure of a
member-owned national crowdfunding cooperative. “Under the theme 'Co-ops Build Economic Power', this year’s Co-op Month is also a chance to lift up the cooperative business model as the best way to build an economy that empowers everyone.”
