 In 2011 we provided over $475,000 worth of groceries to Islanders in need.

Between 14-15% of our Vashon community came through our doors for assistance in 2011, whether.once, twice or multiple times through the year.

We offer an average minimum of 60 pounds worth of assorted groceries each week (works out to 3-4 packed bags of food), including a wide variety of cereals, proteins, fruits and vegetables and dairy. This includes fresh and frozen protein and dairy items as well as fresh produce. 


 Thank you Vashon!
