Cooperative Giving at Organic Valley

The 1398 farmer-owners of the Organic Valley cooperative join together in growing healthy communities for a healthy planet, in addition to growing the pure, organic foods to feed them. We are committed to making a positive impact in our world, from our local communities to the larger communities that work to protect values shared by the Organic Valley Family of Farms.

We have a track record of supporting organizations whose missions align with our own, and we know the importance of giving back to the communities in which we share human and natural resources. Our charitable giving program includes grants, cash and food donations, literature and our silent auction kits—created to help organizations with fundraising.

Within this section of our Web site, you will find our Cooperative Giving Guidelines; application and proposal guidelines for our grant-making fund, Farmers Advocating for Organics; a Donation request form; and Donation follow-up form. We have created mission categories listed in our guidelines that define where we will lend our support.

To determine whether your organization qualifies for Organic Valley's Cooperative Giving Program, please review the guidelines. If you choose to apply for a donation, please use the online forms and process provided with the links from this web page.

We are currently accepting donation requests for 2009.

Thank you!
