SHARE is a program where people can get a break on their grocery bill by purchasing food at discounted prices in exchange for volunteer time. For each package of food purchased, we simply ask for two (2) hours of some type of “good deed” time, at SHARE, in your community, or even in your own neighborhood.
Food packages (worth up to $45) offer meats, fresh fruits and vegetables and grocery items. SHARE buyers purchase the food from growers, brokers and packaging plants. Food is not donated, government surplus, or salvage.
SHARE is for everyone. “If you eat, you qualify.” Everyone in the community can participate in exchange for 2 hours of community service. Community service is defined as random acts of kindness, or service to benefit one’s neighbor or community. Examples might be helping a neighbor, teaching Sunday School, assisting a teacher, delivering meals to the elderly, organizing a group to clean up the neighborhood, setting up a crime watch, helping with scouts or little league, etc.
It is an opportunity for people to share their gifts with the community and get something in return. For some it may mean stretching their food dollars, and for others it may be the difference of whether or not a family will have food on the table.
