From 9-11 am
The South Park Food Bank exists to serve our neighbors in need in the South Park Area (Jefferson, Como, Fairplay, Alma, and Hartsel). We have one monthly distribution day, usually the second Saturday of the month. We are also available to help people in emergency situations.
In addition to our monthly distribution, we help provide snacks for Fairplay schools and the Boys and Girls Club of the High Rockies. We work with the schools to send “Totes for Hope” home with students who need food for the weekend.
We are grateful to be a partner agency with the Food Bank of the Rockies, however, the South Park Food Bank would not exist without the support and generosity of our community. Our work is made possible by amazing donors and volunteers. Volunteers help us receive, unload, sort, arrange, and distribute food. Volunteers pick up and haul food from grocery stores, Colorado Farm to Table, and many other sources. Volunteers help us clean and maintain our facility. Service Learners from South Park Middle School pack the weekly Totes for Hope.
