At Care and Share Food Bank, our mission is to ensure equitable and sustainable access to nutritious food and education by partnering with neighbors, communities, organizations, and supporters across Southern Colorado because we believe no one should go hungry. Our vision is to place people first to maximize access to nutritious food and meet the unique needs of each neighbor we serve. Our core values are people, resilience, integrity, dignity, equity, and excellence.

Since 1972, Care and Share has grown from an all-volunteer-led organization working out of a neighborhood garage in Colorado Springs to the sole food bank serving 29 counties across 47,000 square miles. We are continually adapting and responding to ever-changing factors, such as fluctuations in the economy and the rising costs of essentials.
