Food insecurity continues to affect communities across Colorado, with up to 1 in 3 Coloradans experiencing food insecurity during their lives. Every day, hundreds of thousands of individuals struggle to access consistent, nutritious meals. We Don’t Waste works to address this critical issue by providing food to more than 500,000 Coloradans annually — including families, children, veterans, and seniors.

Join the Avalanche, Kroenke Sports Charities, and King Soopers in supporting Faceoff Against Hunger to make a real difference for Coloradans in need this holiday season! Your donations help We Don’t Waste reach more people facing food insecurity and brings relief to those who need it most. Thank you for your generosity!
