Our member agencies include soup kitchens, emergency assistance programs, senior programs, shelters, child care centers and agencies serving disabled citizens, the mentally ill, low-income working poor and at-risk youth. We help them stretch their dollars by supplying food for their programs. Approximately 60% of the food is distributed through the agencies.
In 2008, we distributed 3.3 million pounds of food at no charge to agencies, with a value of $4,917,000. We also provided free delivery for 85% of the food. We currently serve 57 agencies in Boulder & Broomfield counties, including:
If you operate a 501(c) (3) non-profit agency, and would like to apply for membership, please call the Agency Relations Manager at (303) 652-3663 ext 218. |
We are excited to bring on a new agency this spring; Lyons Community Church. The pastor is over-seeing this new food distribution effort, which will serve a community that had no food pantry prior to this.
We also welcome the Wild Plum Center, which administers the Head Start program in Longmont.
To see information on agencies ( food programs which serve the public directly, where you could go to get a meal or a bag of food) operating in Boulder or Broomfield County, go to "Resources". |
