How will you be spending this year’s tax refund?

The options for spending your tax return are endless and exciting: vacations, shopping sprees, and investments. As your refund checks arrive this year, Care and Share invites you to consider investing a portion of it to helping our neighbors.

By donating your refund to Care and Share Food Bank, you will be helping neighbors in need across Southern Colorado. Did you know that for every dollar donated, we’re able to acquire up to eight meals for our neighbors struggling with hunger? Because of our incredible buying power, and the partnerships we have with retailers and manufacturers, we’re able to get food — and a lot of it — at a much cheaper price than you would at the grocery store. With your generosity, we can ensure that the one in eight Southern Coloradans at risk of hunger has access to the healthy and nutritious food they need to thrive. And together we will continue to ensure that no one in our community goes hungry.
