Mid Michigan Community Action Featured in Catalyst Midland for Volunteer Food‑Packing Event

A recent article reports that over 300 staff from Isabella Bank participated in their annual “Compassion into Action” volunteer day by helping 18 organizations with various projects, including packing food boxes with Mid Michigan Community Action. It's a great example of community partners coming together.

The article notes, “The efforts provide immediate relief for organizations, build long-term community resilience, and create a lasting positive impact.”

At Mid Michigan Community Action, our USDA Food Box program delivers nutritious food boxes to adults aged 60 and older across a wide network of counties: Bay, Clare, Gladwin, Mecosta, Midland, Muskegon, Oceana, Osceola, Isabella, Gratiot, Montcalm, Ionia, Clinton, Eaton, and Ottawa. With the help of volunteers and partners like Isabella Bank in packing these food boxes, we can reach older adults and provide consistent support across a wide region.

If you’d like to get involved and help us continue packing and delivering food boxes throughout the region, please visit our Volunteering page to learn more.
