Our History

SHARE (Self Help And Resource Exchange) was formed in 1983 in San Diego, California by Deacon Carl Shelton and the Catholic Diocese. Deacon Shelton believed it was possible to implement a self-help approach to meeting the food needs in interested communities.

SHARE-DC was launched in April, 1990 by Associated Catholic Charities and the Knights of Malta. SHARE-DC serves communities in Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia.

I take care of a family who are senior citizens and can't get out. I buy the food packages for me, too, because I'm single! It blesses people, especially people with big families, big grocery bills and a little bit of money.
