Our Annual Turkey day is coming this Saturday November 22nd from 8:30-11 you can drop off (or pick up if you need one) a turkey or a gift card to cover the cost of a turkey. Last year we collected over 150 turkeys. How many can we get this year?!?

Thank you for your continued support. We couldn’t feed all of these families without you.

Because of our AMAZING COMMUNITY, we were able to fill the ambulance not once but twice today! Our community always steps up to the plate and hits a home run when needed. We will be able to help even more families in need now!

Last month we hit a record high of 460 families fed, totaling 1200+ people. The need will grow as families decide whether to fuel their homes or feed their families through the holiday/winter months. We are all just one paycheck away from needing food assistance. If in when that need arises we will be there to help your family out.

Thank you again for your generosity😘

In order to help the Williston Community Food Shelf fulfill our mission to Feed Our Hungry Neighbors, a group of three students from the UVM Grossman School of Business have developed a website for donors to order food and hygiene products that get mailed directly to the Williston Community Food Shelf, and there is no shipping charge! All you have to do is go to the following site –

Because it is the end of the summer, our shelves are pretty bare. While people go on vacation for the summer, and, therefore, our food and monetary donations drop dramatically, Hunger Does Not Go On Vacation. In July, we saw 400 families, which translated into 1,025 individuals!
Please consider using the above website to help increase our supplies, anywhere, anytime!
Thank you to Logan Vaughan, Miro Gohacki and Corinne Atwell for developing this platform for us to receive donations. It’s really easy to use. Of course, you can always drop food off to us at 300 Cornerstone Drive, Suite #130, mail a check to us at P.O. Box 1605, Williston, VT 05495; or donate via Paypal or Venmo on our website www.willstonfoodshelf.com.
Thank you!
