A note on independence: Gleaners.wiki is an independent reference compiled from public records, government and evaluator publications, and the organization’s own pages. It is not the official website of Gleaners Food Bank of Indiana, and statements the organization makes about itself are attributed to it. Hours, programs and financial figures can change; confirm services with Gleaners at (317) 925-0191 and confirm tax status from IRS or evaluator pages. This is general information, not legal, tax or benefits advice. See the editorial standards.

What does Google show?

The Google Business Profile, checked on 9 November 2026, showed a 4.6 rating from 1,820 reviews.[1] That is a large sample relative to many local businesses, and it is still a self-selected set of reviewers, not a client survey. This wiki records the figure and the date rather than copying review text.

How do charity ratings differ from star ratings?

Charity Navigator, Candid and the BBB Wise Giving Alliance evaluate financial health, accountability and, in the BBB’s case, standards for charity governance and fundraising.[2][3] They are not the same as a Google star average, which often reflects a visit to a pantry or campus. A high charity rating does not make every distribution-day review positive, and a mixed Google comment does not overturn an audited financial statement. Both belong in a reputation picture, in their own lanes.

How should these figures be used?

Neighbors choosing a pantry should care about hours, food quality and dignity of service, which official programs and the satisfaction guarantee describe in the organization’s own words.[4] Donors should read the 990 and evaluator profiles.[5][3] This wiki does not grade the food bank and does not suppress the Google average or the evaluator seals. Confirm current ratings on the live profiles, because they change.
