Charleston Area Communities
Throughout the Charleston WV area, we work with civic organizations, local schools, health departments, food banks, and other charitable organizations to identify areas of those in need. We are helping meet this need through the use of a food truck that delivers prepared meals in identified places of need.
Underprivileged Children Foundation
The Food S.H.A.C.K. is made possible through the efforts of The Underprivileged Children Foundation, Inc., (UCF). The Food S.H.A.C.K. provides no-cost meals to those in our area in the most need. This effort directly impacts thousands of children & families in our area who are food insecure. To help sustain this operation, UCF offers retail food operations in the Charleston, WV area during lunch at select times during the week, weekends, and at regional festivals. Click here to find out more about the UCF.
Working together to fight hunger.
With support from the UCF, and our festival and event food sales, we are able to provide free meals to Charleston area's youth.
The Band of Brothers Organization
Local Events
The Food SHACK provides free meals in local neighborhoods several times a week. Please check our Facebook Page for our current route.
Our first meal: June 1, 2020
Festivals in Charleston
We also participate in several festivals in the Charleston area each year. We sell food, and use the proceeds to fund our neighborhood meals program.
How You Can Help
The UCF believes the combination of charitable donations and retail food operations will provide an enormous positive impact to these families. Please contact us for information on how to support the Food S.H.A.C.K.
