Mission: Foodshare is leading an informed, coordinated response to hunger in our community.

Founded in 1982, Foodshare is the regional food bank serving Connecticut's Hartford and Tolland counties. Foodshare is a member of the national organization Feeding America, along with more than 200 other food banks nationally. In partnership with the food industry, donors, community leaders and volunteers, Foodshare works to maximize access to nutritious food and other resources that support food security. And, because hunger is bigger than food, Foodshare collaborates with anti-hunger organizations, policy makers, and the broader community to build effective solutions to end hunger.

Foodshare is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 1984, and donations are tax-deductible.
