The mission of the Heart of Downtown Food Co-op is to improve the quality of life of those individuals and families in need who may not be able to provide adequate food and necessities for themselves. As a non-profit organization, we network with local food providers and community agencies in order to provide the best services possible. We help people achieve self-sufficiency by providing temporary food to individuals or families regardless of race, age, disability, gender, immigration status, national origin, or religious belief.
