Good morning
Happening TOMORROW, a walk-through food distribution hosted by volunteers with "King Soopers" and "We Don't Waste" will open at Dick's Sporting Goods Park! Forty thousand pounds of fresh and shelf-stable food will be distributed to families in need. Last year, approximately 400 families visited the food event.
One in eleven Coloradans, including one in nine children, have no idea where their next meal is coming from. The good news is King Soopers, and We Don’t Waste are addressing the hunger challenge together.
"Empowering our community, this generous donation not only fills empty stomachs with nourishment but also fills hearts with hope. It's a powerful reminder that we can all contribute to creating a better tomorrow,” said King Soopers’ Jessica Trowbridge.
When: Wednesday, November 1, 1-3 pm
Where: Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, Lot G, 6000 Victory Way, Commerce City, CO 80022
What: A variety of high-quality food direct from the King Soopers warehouse
