Food Shelf

The Hinesburg Food Shelf works in conjunction with the Vermont Food Bank to provide food staples to families in need. We serve the Towns of Hinesburg, Huntington, Monkton and Saint George. 
Food Shelf  location: 51 Ballards Corner Road (behind the Jiffy Mart)
Food Shelf Hours: Tuesday evenings from 5:30-7:30, and Friday mornings from 10:00-12:00.

​As of January 2023, we have resumed indoor shopping. We will be offering hybrid service so you can choose to stay in their car and have a volunteer bring groceries to them or you are welcome to shop inside during dedicated times. The hours remain the same (Tuesdays 5:30-7:30 and Fridays 10:00-12:00), but the first 45 minutes will be reserved for car service only. Indoor shopping will start at 6:15 (last person in at 7:15) on Tuesdays and 10:45 (last person in at 11:45) on Fridays. Two clients will be allowed to shop at one time.

More information can be found here, and you can take a virtual tour to check it out.

Emergency Financial Assistance

For families in Hinesburg and St. George who are unable to meet basic needs, HCRC offers a small Emergency Assistance Fund. A committee reviews all requests, and in the past we have helped with utility bills, fuel oil, gas, rent, car repairs and more. If you have an urgent need and are having a hard time finding help, please give us a call. 

Contact Us: (802) 482-4946.
Medical Equipment Lending

HCRC lends used medical equipment and mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, canes, commodes, and shower seats to any community member who has a need. Short term loans are typically made for a surgery or recovery from an injury; folks may also borrow items longer term if needed. If you are in need of equipment to borrow or would like to inquire about what we have available, please let us know.
​We are only accepting donations of wheelchairs presently, and we ask donors to call before dropping off; our other lending inventory is full.
