Text Box: What is Food Share America?
The goal of Food Share America (FSA) is to help families save up to 50% on their groceries, while encouraging the building of relationships with our neighbors in the community. There are no qualifications...if you eat, you qualify.
FSA selects items that you're most likely to buy at the grocery store, including fresh fruits, vegetables, and frozen meats. Then through a national affiliate network, we purchase massive quantities of these items at very low prices. At no time do we ever accept donated, day old or government subsidized food for distribution.
As a non-profit organization, FSA relies heavily on volunteers and passes on the huge savings by the reduced expense. Unlike a traditional grocery store, we don't maintain inventories, expensive stores, large employee bases, etc. We rely primarily on word of mouth advertising. Plus we are in it for you, not for the organizations profits.
The host distribution sites are generally churches, senior centers, schools, community centers, etc. The experience of picking up your "SHARE" of food at the host site is almost like a community party. People being to know each other and many meet new friends. Many love and support the program so much that they ask how they can help out next month! Actually we encourage 2 hours of volunteerism for every participant. We consider volunteering anything from working at the host site or warehouse, to babysitting, to sharing a meal with a neighbor or friend. Virtually anything that you do for anyone not in your immediate family for free is volunteering. Most people find that they're already doing it without realizing it. With FSA, we feed both the body and the Spirit.
Participants may order/pay with any form of payment: cash, check, money order, credit, debit and even food stamps. Participants can pay via cash, check or money order at local Distribution Sties throughout the area or pay with credit/debit and food stamps via phone 800.933.7427 or credit/debit via internet at www.foodshareamerica.com.
We welcome you to the FSA family and hope you enjoy the program.
