Community Sharing was created in 2003 by expanding the scope of Community Resource Sharing which was primarily a food pantry serving the Milford area. Upon its creation, various area churches and organizations joined the core planning group and board. The primary focus was to continue the food pantry while exploring other areas of assistance that would be beneficial to the community. Community Sharing has expanded it's services to providing food, clothing, asistance with evictions, utility shut-offs, and other emergencies, referrals to other agencies, advocacy, and tutoring (K-12) for eligible residents of Milford, Highland, and the Stratford Villa and Commerce Meadows mobile home communities in Wixom. Helping all clients to achieve financial independence is the ultimate goal of Community Sharing.
