Our Organizational Values
Transforming Lives with Food
We believe that food has the power to transform people’s lives; everyone should be able
to live without hunger and obtain the food they need in a respectful, dignified manner.
Improving Nutrition
We recognize that good nutrition is essential for health, and we strive to increase the
healthy food choices available to people with low incomes.
Providing Excellent Service
We are dedicated to providing the best service possible to everyone we interact with —
our participants, volunteers, agencies, vendors, donors, the public, and each other.
Managing Resources Efficiently
We are committed to being responsible stewards of the public and private
resources entrusted to us; we work to leverage these resources in order to
have the greatest impact on ending hunger.
Mobilizing the Community to End Hunger
We recognize that we can’t end hunger in Merced and Mariposa Counties
alone; we act as a leader in eliminating obstacles to food assistance and
mobilizing our neighbors to work toward a hunger-free community.
