About Us
Sharing & Caring opened its doors on January 2, 1985 as an emergency food bank providing a basic staple of foods for needy individuals and families. Originally established in a building donated by the First Baptist Church of Fort Walton Beach, we relocated to 126 Beal Parkway in June 1992. Our current building and land, leased from First Presbyterian Church, were renovated extensively by volunteer labor and generous donations from the community.
We are an emergency food source for the needy who qualify within our guidelines. It is available to anyone who resides within the area of Hurlburt Field on the west, to Destin on the East, and to Eglin Air Force Base on the North.
Our clients include families, children, seniors, the homeless, and those who are unemployed. They are often referred to us by churches, other social agencies, or word of mouth.
Area churches, civic organizations, individuals, businesses, and the United Way fund our all volunteer organizations. Sharing & Caring, Inc. is an IRS approved non-profit charitable organization.
