Share is a not for profit organization that builds and strengthens community
through volunteer service. Share offers savings on food and groceries. There are
no income requirements just a desire to make a positive difference in the world.
Everyone is welcome to participate
Share is a program of people helping themselves and others. For eighteen dollars
you will receive between $25 to
$35 worth of groceries that include fresh fruit, vegetables, and meat. You can
also just purchase the vegetable pack for $6.
Your money is paid in advance, because it is all our money that gives us the
buying power to purchase food at great prices. If you are interested, please
call for sign-up dates. Once you are involved, you may purchase the following
month’s Share on the day you pick up the current month. The Share cycle is
designed to get food to people the end of the month when they may be running low
on food or cash.
St. John's is a Share Select host site - giving you a chance to pick and choose
the commodities you want. You must, however, spend at least fifteen dollars.
Two things to remember:
- Bring Boxes and/or bags to bring your food
home.
- We are not responsible for your Share if you do not pick it up on the
distribution day. We will however, make an effort to contact you. If it is not
picked up or if you have not contacted us, we will give the share to someone in
need.
