Where your money goes

One in 10 Coloradans struggle with hunger and face times when there is not enough money to buy food. Many in the Colorado community will turn to food banks to help bridge the gap in hunger.

Food Bank of the Rockies said a $1 donation can provide enough food for three meals thanks to its robust purchasing power, grocery rescue program, government allotments, donations and lower bulk pricing from agricultural and retail partners.

Food banks can purchase food for much less than what the average person would spend at the store, which helps stretch donors' dollars further.
