Mission: build community and help the economy through food

IOU Corvallis fundraises and distributes gift cards to people with low or no income.  

People with low or no income may use these gift cards:

• when they are needed (no lines or scheduling)
• where they are needed (local restaurants, the grocery co-op, and other local food businesses)
• to buy appropriate food for themselves and their families (you choose what your family needs)

 IOU Corvallis helps the local economy by distributing gift cards to locally owned businesses so people can pay full price for food who may not otherwise be able to afford to do so.

IOU Corvallis distributes gift cards through local start-up Kuto. 

Kuto keeps more money local by cutting credit card fees businesses must pay to accept your money. Please use Kuto at locally owned businesses. IOU Corvallis + Kuto helps to create a more resilient local economy.
