Agtegra Supports 27 Food Pantries Across North and South Dakota

As part of its ongoing commitment to strengthening food security in rural communities, Agtegra Cooperative has provided financial support to 27 food pantries across North Dakota and South Dakota.

"As an agricultural cooperative, we take pride in helping feed the world, but that mission starts at
home," said Jason Klootwyk, Agtegra CEO. "Being a local cooperative means being invested in our
neighbors, and we're proud to support the food pantries that serve families across our trade territory."

Agtegra's support focuses on food pantries in its employees' and member-owners' communities. By
partnering with civic, nonprofit, and local organizations, the cooperative works to expand communitylevel access to food.

Through a matching grant from the Land O'Lakes Foundation, every dollar contributed by Agtegra was
matched dollar-for-dollar. This effectively doubled the total funds available, allowing supported food
pantries to provide even more food and resources to meet growing community needs.
