Positive Change

The Positive Change program raises money for local non-profit organizations working to better our community. We believe in the power of change and the power of community – Positive Change combines these two beliefs into one powerful program. The Positive Change program is one of the many ways the Co-op fulfills the seventh cooperative principle: Concern for Community.

Next time you check out, say “I’d like to round-up for Positive Change,” and we’ll round-up the total of your purchase to the nearest dollar, or you can donate any desired amount. Each month, the selected non-profit organization receives 100% of the donated funds, plus an additional $500 grant from the Co-op. In celebration of National Co-op Month, MFC reserves the month of October each year to fundraise for a program, fund, or organization to be determined at the discretion of MFC's Outreach Committee. Annually, the Board of Directors selects one Positive Change recipient to receive an additional grant from our Cooperative Community Fund. Thank you for contributing to positive change and making a difference in our community!

We turn spare change into Positive Change for local non-profits.

The Positive Change program is for organizations seeking direct financial support. Positive Change recipients for 2027 will be selected by our owners in the 2026 Annual Election. If your organization would like to be notified when the 2028 application is available this fall, please contact us.

If you are seeking a food or gift card donation, please complete our Donation Request Form.

A few cents here and there add up to big impacts for our local non-profits.

Spare change really adds up.
