Due to the devastating floods that swept through Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota recently, the AWG (Associated Wholesale Grocers) Cares Advisory Committee approved a $5,000 grant to go to OGT to help with flood relief efforts. AWG Cares is AWG’s employee-managed, company-supported and community-focused non-profit charitable organization. It was established to help employees support the charities they care about and give back to the communities where they work and live. Thank you for this generous gift that will help many families recovering from the devastating flood waters.
