This is your opportunity to show that you have done your research. World Food Program USA's website states their values and explains why they consider them important. Connect your values with theirs and explain why it is important to you as well.

There is no need to recite all of the values listed on the website. Instead, choose one on which to focus. This will give you the time and space to connect your experience to that specific value.

"Reading through the values of the World Food Program USA is what made me so excited about applying to work with this organization in the first place! In college, I was the director of a volunteer group that traveled to New Orleans twice a year to assist with home rebuilding efforts following Hurricane Katrina. During that time, I saw firsthand the need for food among displaced and homeless families. Therefore, I truly connected with WFP USA's value that all families have access to food even when natural disaster strikes."

"As a former teacher, I have seen how access to quality food can change a child's life and future prospects. Your website mentions that 'food enables every human to reach their potential,' and I wholeheartedly agree with that statement. When my students came to class well-fed with a good lunch provided for them, they performed much better academically and were able to achieve their higher education goals. I want to join an organization that shares this value."
