September has been an exciting month: settling into our new operating space, hosting our first guests and volunteers, and distributing more food than we ever have during the first month of the school year!
Timby's Tienda - In The News!
Food for Hope recently received a grant from the Denver Broncos Community Grant Foundation to assist with the high needs of food in our community.
Take a look at how our Food Bank, Timby’s Tienda, inside of Pinnacle Charter School works. CBS Channel 4 Denver came out to provide insight into how Pinnacle Charter School and Food for Hope partner in offering food services to students and families. This Food Bank runs different than our others, we offer an online shopping experience! Students and families order food items online (food is updated weekly), Food for Hope Volunteers pack the bags of food out of the Food Bank and families pick them up!
Rep the Cause - Buy a Shirt!
We’d love everyone to have a Food for Hope Shirt! Wearing our shirts in the community helps us grow. We are in our offices on Mondays from 9am-6pm, so drop by and purchase a shirt. Or email: Darcie@foodforhope.net to have one dropped off or mailed.
Cost: $15 Short Sleeve, $20 Long Sleeve (Dark Blue), $25 Crewneck Sweatshirt (Dark Green), $40 Zipper Sweatshirt (Black with Orange) !
September is Hunger Action Month!
Hunger Action Month is a national campaign run by Feeding America to raise awareness for citizens who regularly experience food insecurity in the United States. We want to encourage you to take action!
The calendar above illustrates many options to support Food for Hope and spread the word on hunger in Adams County.
