Our Mission.
Willing Hands recovers fresh food from farms, grocery stores, restaurants, and wholesalers, and delivers it year-round, for free, to approximately 80 social service organizations across the Upper Valley of Vermont and New Hampshire. Our work is made possible by a strong and wide network of volunteers, food donors, and food access partners.


We love our Food Access Partners!
At Willing Hands, we believe in a community where everyone can enjoy nourishing, fresh food regardless of economic status or personal circumstance. Food insecurity affects community members whose circumstances vary widely across Vermont and New Hampshire. Our Food Access Partners include food shelves, health centers, senior centers, income eligible housing sites, supportive housing sites, youth & family centers, and others. These incredible organization help get the food we distribute to our neighbors




Did you know?
Willing Hands is a leader in community-scale climate solutions. Food recovery is one of the most important things we can do to address the climate crisis; in fact, reducing food waste is 10 times more impactful than transitioning to electric vehicles. That’s because when food goes to waste it harms the climate in two ways: first by wasting all the energy that went into producing it, and second by producing methane–a greenhouse gas which is 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide—as it rots in the landfill.
