Bloomingfoods is a community-owned cooperative grocery store in Bloomington, Indiana since 1976. We promote healthy, high quality, sustainable, and environmentally-sound products at a fair price. Our commitment to sustainable agriculture, artisanal producers of local products, and delicious regional foods are a few of the things that set us apart. Our Ends Statement:
People in Bloomington and Sout

h Central Indiana will have…
• A market for local, fair and healthful products, produced with care for the land, animals, and future generations.
• A democratic cooperative-ownership model that provides meaningful employment and strengthens the community.
• A robust and sustainable local food economy with fair prices for producers and all owner-members.
• Access to education on food systems, cooperative values, and the interconnectedness of food, health, and the environment. About Cooperatives:
Cooperatives (Co-ops) are member-owned, member-governed businesses that operate for the benefit of their owner-members according to common principles agreed upon by the international cooperative community. Co-ops are based on the values of self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity. In the tradition of their founders, cooperative members believe in the ethical values of honesty, openness, social responsibility, and caring for others. Co-ops are built on seven core principles:
• Voluntary and open membership
• Democratic member control
• Member economic participation
• Autonomy and independence
• Education, training and information
• Cooperation among cooperatives
• Concern for community

All Co-ops contain the following elements:
• Co-ops are owned and governed by their primary users (the owner-members).
• Co-ops are democratically governed (one owner-member, one vote).
• Co-ops are businesses, not clubs or associations.
• Co-ops adhere to internationally recognized principles.

Make a Positive Change by rounding up your total at the register for Exodus Refugee Immigration in August! Thanks to our anonymous donor, funds raised during the first seven days of August will be matched! 💚

🏡 Exodus is an Indiana-based resettlement agency that was first established in 1981. Since that time, it has welcomed thousands of people from around the world through the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP). The Bloomington office was founded in the fall of 2021 and, since then, it has welcomed over 500 refugees to the Bloomington community. Exodus's goal is to help clients establish self-sufficient new lives in Indiana. Upon welcoming people at the airport, Exodus provides all basic necessities for day-to-day living, such as housing and clothing and household supplies. Exodus also provides intensive case management services to clients, including but not limited to: securing employment, learning English, connecting them to a primary care doctor, enrolling their children in school and citizenship classes. Finally, the agency provides a variety of other services for long-term support, including both legal services and mental health services. The donations from the Positive Change program in August will help provide essential direct support to Exodus clients, such as a grocery cards, medicine, and rent and utility assistance.

💙 Donations of any size can also be made at any time. Thank you for making a positive change!
