Hunger Heroes

Thank you, Hiscox Foundation USA, for being true Hunger Heroes! Your generous $100,000 gift is making a meaningful impact for our neighbors facing hunger. A special thank you to the members of Hiscox's West Hartford, Connecticut team who volunteered with us! We’re grateful for your partnership. Watch the full video here.

In 2014, Chris and Jim Wrobel learned their neighbors were struggling to put food on the table. They could not turn their backs on their community, so they started volunteering at Connecticut Foodshare.

A Delicious New Partnership Fighting Hunger in Connecticut!

“I know that Connecticut Foodshare provides a vital role in our communities by distributing food to those facing food insecurity.” Meet Liz Teare, owner of GIFTS + ART on Trumbull in Hartford! Liz and her husband are longtime supporters of Connecticut Foodshare. They donate and volunteer with us, because they know how great the need is right now. GIFTS + ART on Trumbull is a wonderful, new addition to downtown Hartford. You can stop by to find beautiful gifts for all ages and artwork from local and regional artists. Thank you, Liz, for your generosity and commitment to helping fight hunger! 

We’re excited to launch our new Staff Spotlight series — giving you a chance to meet the dedicated people behind the work we do every day to fight hunger in Connecticut.

Steve Deane is passionate about helping our Connecticut neighbors get the food they need and deserve.
