Glover Park Food Support Program

Working with partners in the DC area, we are pleased to offer you a monthly food delivery under the auspices of our food support program!

Post pandemic inflation has led to increasing food prices. Changes in government assistance have left many of us wondering how we will afford fresh produce and quality sources of protein.

The Glover Park Village Food Support Program aims to provide some relief. With the support of GPV volunteers, your Village has launched a program using the SHARE system to deliver food to residents who live in greater Glover Park. This monthly food box contains fresh fruits, vegetables, as well as protein at a reasonably priced $25 (worth at least $60). If you wish, we can also provide you with a free food box thanks to a grant from the Glover Park Citizens Association.

Information for ordering your food box and delivery.

  1. Order your $25 box by the 10th (or earlier) of each month.

  2. Click on the ORDER NOW button below to place your order

  3. The box will be delivered to you by a GPV volunteer on the 3rd or 4th Friday of the month between 2:00-5:00 p.m. on the date specified in the list below. You will receive an email from the Village with specifics.

  4. You must be home to receive the delivery.

  5. ENJOY!

Please volunteer to drive once a month!

We are looking for volunteers to drive once a month to deliver food. It’s easy to plan ahead and know you may be called upon to drive on a specified date. Please see the SHARE calendar for Friday delivery dates and offer to drive or partner with a driver! We can use your help! Call 202-436-5545 to let us know you can help!

Glover Park Village picks up its food boxes from the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament Church near Chevy Chase Circle which supports the national Catholic SHARE program. See more about the national SHARE program at this link to the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament Church: https://www.blessedsacramentdc.org/ Please look under “Ministries” and find the information about the monthly SHARE food program. You will see what it offers in addition to the $25 Food Box. You are welcome to order food directly from that site but Glover Park Village cannot deliver food that you order on your own - you will need to pick it up.

Many thanks to the Glover Park Citizen’s Association for a subsidizing start-up grant. Other partners in this effort include the Friends of Guy Mason, Guy Mason Department of Recreation, and the residents of Glover Park. We would also like to thank GPV volunteer Barbara Ferris.
