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.
