Free Food Market
SECORCares serves the residents of Arapahoe, Douglas, and Elbert Counties who are struggling with suburban poverty. Through our free food market, guests are able to shop and put food on their tables, without concern for payment.
Much like a grocery store, our market is stocked with everyday items where our guests can shop and choose the things their families will eat and enjoy. Thanks to our many partners who donate food, we are able to provide our guests with fresh produce, meats, dairy, fresh breads, canned and dry goods, and even desserts. We also have a limited supply of pet food for our furry friends. A typical guest will leave with enough food to last 10-14 days.
Our Market is currently open four days each week, no appointment necessary. If you or someone you know is in need, please stop by during our market hours:
Days/hours of operation:
-
Wednesday & Thursday 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
-
Friday & Saturday – 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
NOTE:
-
NEW Guests - please arrive 1 hour prior to closing for the intake process
-
RETURNING Guests - please arrive 30 minutes prior to closing
