Share Food Program | Home Delivery

Give Now

Not everyone who needs food can leave their home to get it. That’s why work to meet people where they are. With the help of DoorDash, Share Food Program provides free food box deliveries to qualifying seniors. Eligible seniors receive one box a month; inside is juice, cereal, canned goods, and other shelf-stable food, and cheese.

Since early 2022, Share’s home deliveries have increased by more than 160% to keep up with the continually growing need in our communities.

“During the four weekly hours it’s giving out senior boxes, Share handles a greater number of delivery orders than any store or restaurant in the world on the DoorDash app, according to DoorDash executives.”

What’s at stake if SNAP funding is slashed? Anti $What’s at stake if SNAP funding is slashed? Anti-hunger leaders and grocers continue to raise red flags about the drastic, proposed SNAP cuts being eyed by Congress. “When families in our communities have fewer resources to meet basic needs like food, it creates a domino effect. For our grocers, it also threatens their ability to maintain jobs, keep our doors open in underserved areas, and continue being a reliable source of food and employment… Cuts to SNAP don’t just impact recipients — they impact entire local communities.” Read more in a recent @fracgram article examining the crippling costs of cutting SNAP.$

Hey Philly High Schoolers, we have a PAID internsh

Volunteer Appreciation Week continues — and it’s time for a Warehouse Volunteer Spotlight 💫 Please meet Marcheela Barbour McNeil

Q - Why do you volunteer?

A - I’ve always wanted to give back, always wanted to do more for others, but when I was working I could never find the right place to put that energy. I knew I wanted to do something to feed the homeless, and I actually started doing that with my church, but that service only happens once every three months. Now that I’m retired, I have all this free time on my hands. I try to choose things that I know I’ll enjoy. I enjoy helping the seniors, I enjoy gardening, so I’ve gotten involved in volunteering for things like that. Wherever I feel I can help, I want to help. I’m also a Christian, so for me that means I believe in helping others who are less fortunate than myself. Even though I’ve been a Christian for a long time, I feel that recently I’ve really started to take that seriously and put my beliefs into practice.

Q — What got you interested in volunteering at Share?

Well, the real reason is that Share is close. I live 5 blocks away from the Share warehouse, so it’s easy to get here. When I need to, or want to, I can walk there, and I think I’m going to start doing that more. It’s good exercise! But I mentioned before that I like helping people in need, and Share is a place where I see that happening. Every 3 months, my church volunteers at Chosen 300, a homeless shelter on Spring Garden, and we serve food to the homeless. I really enjoy that, but it’s only every 3 months. I like coming here to volunteer because it makes me feel good.

Q — What do you do when you’re not volunteering at Share?

One of the things I like to do the most is go to church. I sing in the choir at my church, I go to rehearsal, and I volunteer at my church. I do anything I can with my church family, including volunteering and helping people in need. I also like to visit my daughter in northern Jersey when I can.
