Partage, the banque alimentaire of the canton of Geneva.

Our history

Partage was created in 2005 by 5 founding members: the Salvation Army, C.A.R.E., Caritas Geneva, les Colis du Cœur and Emmaüs.

It is the only food bank in the canton of Geneva.

Partage became a foundation in 2016 afin de pérenniser son financement et ainsi assurer la longévité de sa mission au cœur de l’aide alimentaire.
