The goal of SHARE is to help families save about 50% on their groceries, while encouraging the building of relationships with their neighbors in the community. There are no qualifications...if you eat, you qualify. Any one from the affluent to those with struggling budgets can participate in SHARE. You see, even those who can afford to spend more for food are being good stewards with their money by simply being more frugal. What's more, the minimal profits in each share of food sold go to support this program and sometimes those who can't even afford to buy a share.

Look in our website or our SHARE newspaper and find your zip code, or one close to it. Find a host site location in or around your zip code area. You can go to that host site during the listed registration/sign up times to place and pay for your order. If you've missed the registration times listed, call the numbers for the host site and see if they have another time. If not, you can always call the Share main offices for help in signing up or just information. You can also place your order over the phone at the SHARE main office and we can add your order to the site where you want to pick up. Our number is (303) 428-0400, or 800-933-7427. The host site locations accept Cash, Quest cards, and most take checks. If placing an order over the phone with the main office, you can use a credit card (Visa, M/C), Quest card, or check by phone. After you place your order, go back to your selected host site to pick up your order during the designated distribution/pick up day and time. (These days and times are also listed in the newspaper and website). The last day to order for the March menu is 3/20/08.

Besides being a great source of food, SHARE Colorado can also be a great community builder.
