What is SHARE?
SHARE — Self-Help And Resource Exchange is a community building program that offers nutritious food packages worth as much as $30 to $40 for only $20 per package and two volunteer hours per food package purchased. This program provides quality food at a reduced cost and promotes volunteer service as a means of strengthening our Peninsula community and beyond. Because SHARE food packages are purchased from food co-ops, no food is ever used from the Foodbank.
How does SHARE work?
SHARE purchases large quantities of food at wholesale prices. Volunteers distribute the food through a network of over 50 Distribution Teams throughout the SHARE Hampton Roads service area. Anyone living in the service areas listed below can participate.
What is a Food Package?
Food packages help supplement dinners for a family of four for approximately one week. Each month the SHARE program offers three different food packages valued as much as $30 to $40.
