Hunger Action Month
When people are fed, futures are nourished.
Everyone needs nutritious food to thrive.
Yet, tens of millions of people in the United States ― including 1 in 7 individuals in Southern Colorado ― face hunger. This September, join us for Hunger Action Month by sharing, volunteering, pledging, fundraising, and donating. Help provide the nourishing food everyone needs to thrive. This year, Care and Share Food Bank has a goal of raising $102,000, which will allow us to provide 408,000 meals to neighbors in need.

September is Hunger Action Month
This September, choose to stand against hunger. Sharing, volunteering, pledging, fundraising, and donating are just a few ways to further your impact.
Donate
For every dollar donated, we can provide five meals to neighbors in need across Southern Colorado. Thanks to Chris and Peggy Rice, the Kaplan Foundation, and Rampart Supply, every dollar donated will be matched up to $40,000.
Host a food & fund drive
Collect food or funds from your friends, family, coworkers, or community! You can collect donations in person or create an online donation page you can share on social media.
Volunteer
Sign up for a volunteer shift during the month of September. From sorting and packing food donations, to helping our neighbors shop at our Sunny Side Markets, we have shifts for everyone. Grab a friend or co-worker and sign up below!
Dine at Whataburger
From September 1st - 30th, donate $1 when you visit Whataburger and receive a free taquito on your next visit! Every dollar donated will benefit Care and Share Food Bank.
Donate at the register
All through the month of September, round up and/or donate $1, $5, or $10 dollars at the register while shopping at your local King Soopers! 100% of funds will go directly back to Care and Share.
Give back with Ent Credit Union
The next time you stop by your local Ent Service Center in person, participate in their Hunger Action Month fundraiser to help raise more meals.
