Midwest Staffing and Keystaff Professionals are honored to have volunteered and assisted My Very Own Bed – Providing new beds to kids in need!
Our teams designed and assembled beautiful dream kits for each bed. Once completed, we helped deliver beds and the dream kits to children that were in need of beds in our local community. It was an incredible experience and very heartfelt. We especially loved seeing the kids light when they received a bed where they can enjoy sleep and personal space. Our teams are already looking forward to the next time we volunteer for this amazing non-profit organization founded by Michael J. Allen.
Midwest Staffing participated in The Bernard Group’s annual Charity Golf Tournament. This year the proceeds will go to Open Hands Foundation, PROP Food Shelf, and Haven Housing. The tournament brought 142 golfers together and raised over $76K for the chosen charities. Not only were we able to contribute to these great causes, but it gave us a chance to connect with others who care about helping people.
Midwest Staffing & KeyStaff Professionals were fortunate to be part of an exciting event, hosted by SafeNet Consulting, to raise money for the American Cancer Society. The evening was full of stories, a 1/2K walk-run, music, silent auction fun, and photobooth photos! Raising money for a cause that touches every one of us is so rewarding and we are grateful for the opportunity!

Midwest Staffing and KeyStaff Professionals participated in the 2021 “Toys for Tots Campaign”. We got a little bit of a late start, but between our branches, we gathered well over 200 toys and games!
We are so proud to give back to such an amazing cause knowing that it’s putting big smiles on children’s faces Christmas morning!!
We are looking forward to participating this year and hoping gather even more toys!!
Midwest Staffing was able to share the holiday spirit this past season, as we had the opportunity to support multiple employees from our company with a holiday meal. Each employee of Midwest Staffing Group was involved in either selecting the items for the employee, getting a prepackaged meal, or a gift card. While we set this up to surprise our selected employees, it definitely brought warm smiles and holiday cheer. One of the employees that we were able to give a holiday meal to was Sean Fuller. Sean currently works for one of our clients and has done a tremendous job. He has proven to be reliable, self-motivated, responsible, kind, and respectful. Sean is an employee we value and we appreciate him for all of the hard work he has put in. (Thank you, Sean!) One of the best feelings in the world is knowing that you are able to give back, and what makes it even better is doing it with your organization.
“It’s not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving.”
To quote everyone’s favorite ogre, “Ogres are like onions. Layers, onions have layers.” – Shrek
It sounds silly I know, but at Midwest Staffing and Keystaff Professionals we do have LAYERS! We don’t only get to change lives by finding great jobs and careers for our candidates, but we love giving back to our communities.
It’s so gratifying when we can partner with such amazing local organizations like Second Harvest Heartland and do just that. At Second Harvest Heartland, they believe no one should ever go hungry, as our region produces more than enough food for everyone. Second Harvest was created in 2001 after joining their MSP and St Paul organizations to bring 44 years of history together! Second Harvest is one of the nation’s largest hunger relief organizations and we at Midwest Staffing and Keystaff Professionals are proud to be able to partner with them!
So, why onions? Well, just like we have layers at Midwest and Keystaff, so did Second Harvest that fateful night in January! I mean, literally bags and bags of ONIONS that were donated by local farmers that were as tall as our shortest person on the team. In 2.5 hours, we went through 88 bags of those wonderfully, layered vegetables, or 3,608 lbs. CRAZY! If that doesn’t get your socks knocked off, well, all our onion sorting powers provided 3,066 meals to deserving families and broken down each person that night contributed 177 meals, so we all worked up some sweat!
Second Harvest offers many volunteer opportunities to the community, and they make it incredibly easy to join and give back. If you would like to learn more about them, donate, or sign up to volunteer you can visit their website at: https://www.2harvest.org/about_us/
