willing hands

Willing Hands mission is to reduce food waste, alleviate hunger, and improve health of individuals facing food insecurity in the Upper Valley. Since 2004, Willing Hands has distributed over 5 million pounds of fresh perishable food to partner organizations serving those in need. We grow, glean and recover fresh perishable food - primarily fruits and vegetables from local grocers, wholesalers, bakeries and farms - and distribute it to 60 partner organizations like food shelves, community meal sites, child and family support services, senior centers, low-income housing facilities and other organizations that share our mission to help people facing food insecurity. Volunteers are a vital part of our work.
