Lucky and his wife Shelly began their time at Care and Share when Shelly worked for Colorado Springs Utilities and led a group in volunteering. Lucky and Shelly retired soon after and realized that they wanted to find a place to regularly volunteer. They checked into Care and Share nearly seven years ago, and have since been a consistent and important part of this organization.

Lucky and Shelly spend most of their time working in the distribution center sorting and boxing up food, but they have recently taken over the leadership of Care and Share’s Mobile Food Pantries at Peak Vista’s Health Center at Fountain. Lucky and Shelly were also familiar faces at Care and Share during the food and fund drives for those affected by the Waldo Canyon and Black Forest fires. 

Not only do they volunteer their time, but they contribute their money and other resources as well. Shelly says, “We’ve come together for a like goal of helping others.” It’s really admirable that Lucky and Shelly are able to create a family-like atmosphere at Care and Share while giving back to their community. They are dedicated, and very much appreciated, partners in the fight against hunger!
