Midwest Food Bank Values 

Hunger and food insecurity are significant problems facing our country and communities. We are a food charity with a desire to demonstrate God's love by providing help to those in need.

Midwest Food Bank's values are built on the Biblical base of the ‘fruit of the spirit’ – Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control. Our values give us a roadmap to "Sharing the Blessings."

Serving - We recognize and adapt to our agencies (food pantries, schools, soup kitchens, shelters) needs, providing them resources to help them best solve food insecurity for individuals and families.

Empowering Volunteers - Our volunteers find purpose in their efforts shared with MFB. Opportunities are made available for any age and array of abilities. The countless hours and expertise of our volunteers is a unique and blessed differentiator.

Embracing communities - We warmly welcome community members and partners, engage with them to serve those in need, and sincerely appreciate the joint partnerships we have.

Integrity - Our communications and actions are always done with honesty and transparency.

Teamwork - We work across all our divisions and within our locations. We place a high priority on collaboration, leveraging best practices for continuous improvement of an already efficient organization.

Vision  - To provide industry-leading food and disaster relief while sharing the gospel message.

"Our hope is to help bridge the gap between prosperity and poverty in our community."
