Who Can Visit?

This is a regional food bank that warehouses and distributes food to 140+ partner pantries and agencies across 32 counties in central and northeast Missouri. The Vandiver location is the distribution hub, not a walk-in pantry for individuals.

To find food near you, use the food locator on their website — it shows partner pantries and upcoming Mobile Market events in your area.

Good to Know

The Food Bank runs Mobile Markets at community locations around the region each month, including sites in Boone County. No paperwork required — just show up and bring boxes, bags, or a laundry basket. Volunteers load food directly into your vehicle.

Check sharefoodbringhope.org/programs/mobile-markets for upcoming dates and locations.

Ways to Give

Accepts monetary donations online at sharefoodbringhope.org/donate. You can also organize a food or fund drive, or explore corporate sponsorship and planned giving options through their website.
