OSHaRE is a grass-roots, staff led, volunteer driven, collaborative, community funded charity located in Owen Sound, Ontario. From 2024 to 2025 we saw a 55% increase in the number of meals being served to the community, through our different programs. The greatest increase was in the number of families accessing our services. We are so thankful for our amazing volunteers, community partners, staff, donors and the whole community for helping us to meet this increased demand. Thank you for helping us to share at OSHaRE.
