Community Food Share’s New Strategic Pillars
As the needs and challenges faced by our community evolve, Community Food Share has formulated an updated three-year strategic plan that outlines the key objectives we will look to accomplish to help ensure each and every community member is provided the health and well-being they deserve. This vision is grounded in four key pillars. Each of which embodies our mission and upholds the values at our organization’s core. Let’s take a quick look at each pillar and its significance in the fight against hunger.
1. FEED:
Access to nutritious food shouldn’t be an uphill battle. Recognizing this, we remain dedicated to our core mission of “Feeding our Neighbors”. We recognize the importance of providing everyone with fair access to nutritious food. Every meal we distribute helps families and individuals meet the health and nutrition goals they need to not just survive, but thrive. Are you or someone you know in need? Explore our diverse programs to find food, or learn how you can support the cause by making a donation.
2. COMMUNITY:
The mission to feed our neighbors is not accomplished on our own. It’s a collective effort where collaboration is the key to magnifying our impact. By joining hands with partner agencies and community members, we create a network of support, ensuring every individual feels seen, heard, and cared for. This united front amplifies our capacity to receive, store, and distribute food, ensuring we reach as many neighbors as possible. We invite you to join our community of difference-makers. Whether it’s volunteering with one of our programs or supporting our mission through donations of any kind, we are truly an organization that is both Community Led and Community Fed.
3. SUSTAIN:
We’re devoted to upholding the highest standards of food safety and quality while promoting sustainable operations. By integrating sustainable operations, we ensure that when community members come to us, they receive nourishment that brings both health and peace of mind.

4. EDUCATE & EVALUATE:
Knowledge empowers change. It’s not enough to merely address hunger; we need to understand its origins, implications, and solutions. We aim to raise awareness of the many faces of hunger throughout our community and base decisions on how to best serve our neighbors through the evaluation of consistent feedback and data analysis. By doing so, we’re not just addressing hunger we’re working towards long-term, sustainable solutions. Learn more about food insecurity and how you can help by exploring our education resources.
In aligning ourselves with these pillars, we are not just setting a path for our future but reiterating our promise to every individual in our community. As we journey ahead, we invite you to join us, whether it’s accessing our services, donating, volunteering, or simply spreading the word.
Thank you for your continuous support and belief in our mission. Together, we’re more than a food bank. We’re a community on a mission to ensure the health and well-being of each and every one of our neighbors.
