When people are fed, futures are nourished.

Everyone needs nutritious food to thrive.

September is Hunger Action Month

September is Hunger Action Month - a nationwide campaign Feeding America partner food banks host to raise awareness around the issue of hunger and to motivate our communities to take action. This year, Care and Share Food Bank has a special opportunity to provide even more meals to children, families, seniors, and individuals facing hunger. Thanks to the Abram and Ray Kaplan Foundation, we are eligible for a $50,000 match! So every $1 donated to Care and Share Food Bank during the month of September will be MATCHED - up to $50,000! When people are fed, futures are nourished. As grocery prices remain high and families deal with the reduction of federal food benefits, more of our neighbors are turning to our network of partner food pantries and meal programs for help. Your voice, actions, and commitment help ensure communities across Southern Colorado have the food they need to thrive.
Donate

For every two dollars donated, we can provide five meals to neighbors in need across Southern Colorado. Thanks to the Abram and Ray Kaplan Foundation, we are eligible for a $50,000 match! So every $1 donated to Care and Share Food Bank during the month of September will be MATCHED - up to $50,000!

Host a food & fund drive

Collect food or funds from your friends, family, coworkers, or community! You can collect donations in person or create an online donation page you can share on social media.
