Our Story



What We Do?


Each day our team sets out to pick up fresh, high quality food that would otherwise go to waste. Our donors include: grocery stores, distributors, restaurants, and hotels. Hands For Hunger transports this food within hours to those who need it most - community centers, shelters, churches and soup kitchens throughout the island. These agencies provide food to hungry children, seniors on fixed income, women seeking refuge from domestic abuse, the homeless, the disabled, psychiatric patients and many more who cannot provide for themselves.

Unlike a food bank, we focus mainly on perishable products: prepared foods, fruits, vegetables, milk, frozen foods and meat.

Hands For Hunger is a registered, not-for-profit charity (# 57211 C) that relies on donations from community groups, foundations, corporations and people like you. We are led by a volunteer Board of Directors and supported by hundreds of dedicated volunteers.
