Food Bank of the Rockies - Volunteer Martha packing up Food for Hope in the New Year!
Food for Hope has partnered with Food Bank of the Rockies as a Hunger Relief Partner for many years. We now purchase over 75% of our food from Food Bank of the Rockies and we are Thankful they deliver to us weekly! We wanted to highlight the collaborative spirit of this partnership by sharing Martha, a dedicated volunteer at Food Bank of the Rockies. Martha's unwavering commitment to the cause recently earned her the prestigious Everyday Hero Award from Channel 7 in Denver, Colorado. Martha's selfless efforts include tirelessly packing food destined for Food for Hope, contributing to the organization's mission of combating food insecurity in the region.
The Food for Hope and Food Bank of the Rockies partnership, coupled with the remarkable dedication of volunteers like Martha, exemplifies the collective commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of those facing hunger in our community.
