Vision: Creating A Hunger Free Community

Mission: Helena Food Share serves our neighbors in need by providing food in a respectful and dignified way and by working with others to eliminate hunger in the greater Helena Area.

Description:
Helena Food Share's core program is the provision of groceries, at no cost, to anyone requesting assistance. This program operates five days per week throughout the year. There are up to 3,000 visits per month for this program. Helena Food Share also has several specialized and targeted programs. These include the Senior Commodities and Farmers' Market Coupon Programs for low income seniors, mobile pantries, the backpack program (for children), the East Helena Food Share Pantry, a volunteer program, food stamp outreach and special holiday food distributions.
