The food pantry is located at 5061 N. Duck Lake Road in Highland, Michigan. It is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that has been providing food and financial support to those in need in our community since 2004. In 2017, outreach expanded to assist any neighbor residing in the Huron Valley School District of Oakland County. As a volunteer-based organization, with over 200 volunteers, expenses are low, which means ninety cents of every dollar spent can go directly to client services. On average 700 men, women and children receive assistance each month.*

Donations help the recently unemployed, the working poor, families in poverty, low income seniors, people with disabilities and others who qualify. There are special programs to assist the children of Community Sharing clients that will improve their health, welfare and, hopefully, their happiness. With a focus on the next generation, tutoring is offered to help in the fight against inter-generational poverty, knowing that education is the road to self-sufficiency.

Community Sharing is surrounded and held by a loving community. Time, energy and finances from our supporters allow us to provide a broad range of services to financially distressed families. There isn't a month that goes by that someone in Highland or Milford doesn't offer some form of charitable endeavor... a coat and boot drive, a pj collection for kids, a back-to-school clothing drive or a canned food drive for the holidays. Little things matter, particularly to young children, so in the month of a client's child's birthday, an age-appropriate gift bag is provided. A birthday bag is filled with a cake mix, frosting, paper plates, candles, decorations and a special gift, all donated items. Everyone's birthday should be celebrated with family and friends!
