Willing Hands Enterprises

Willing Hands recovers fresh food from farms, grocery stores, restaurants, and wholesalers, and delivers it year-round, for free, to more than 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 recipient organizations. Together, we serve 30,000 individuals annually with four million servings while mitigating nearly one million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions from food that would have otherwise gone to waste. This included 915,818 pounds of food donated to Willing Hands or purchased during fiscal year 2023-2024. This food was then delivered to our partners, composted, or picked up by farms for animal feed.
