One neighbor we met used to be a Food Bank of the Rockies donor; now, she comes to us for support.“It’s been really, really hard, and I’ll tell you what: if it wasn’t for Food Bank of the Rockies, I would be in very bad financial trouble. Pretty much all the food I eat I get from the Food Bank,” she shared.  \nAs more people turn to us and our Hunger Relief Partners for nourishment, we are operating with too little space and reduced federal support on top of the challenges of inflation. We need to do more, and we have a bold, audacious plan to do exactly that. This winter, Food Bank of the Rockies is opening a brand-new, purpose-built distribution center.  \nThis new building, located a few miles east of our current facility, will mean nourishing more people with the fresh, familiar foods they want and need; collaborating with our Hunger Relief Partners more effectively to meet community needs, changes, and challenges; saving more than $500,000 annually on operating costs and enabling us to distribute even more food; and addressing the root causes of food insecurity through workforce training programs and additional community partnerships. With support from people like you, the possibilities enabled by this new facility are endless.  \nThroughout our service area, one in eight people lives with food insecurity. Hunger rates are at a more than 10-year high, making this not just a concerning issue, but a public health crisis. Even though Food Bank of the Rockies has increased our food distribution volume five-fold over the last 20 years, it’s still not enough. Our purchasing power has been squeezed due to higher food costs and the need to purchase a larger portion of our total food supply. Those factors and others have impacted what we are able to do with one dollar. Just a few years ago, one dollar allowed us to provide enough food for four meals. Today, it helps us provide enough food for three meals.  \nIn the shadow of these challenges are powerful opportunities and hope. We will continue to show up for our neighbors facing food insecurity no matter the hurdles and are optimistic about the impact we will be able to make, together, on hunger across our region. In this annual report, you will learn more about the new distribution center, encounter stories from our community members, and discover the exciting ways Food Bank of the Rockies showed up for our neighbors when they needed us most this past fiscal year.  \nTogether as a united community committed to ending hunger, we are accomplishing the boldest move ever undertaken in Food Bank of the Rockies’ history with our new distribution center—building a legacy of hunger relief for our neighbors today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.  \nPulling  \nPresident & CEO  \nChristina Bowen  \nBoard Chair  \n3  \nYEAR-IN-REVIEW   \n􀀞􀀝􀀜􀀛􀀚 􀀘􀀗􀀛􀀖 􀀕􀀔􀀕􀀓  \nOUR FISCAL YEAR 2025 NUMBERS REFLECT THE HIGHEST NEED FOR FOOD AS","cbCaisLbpSfPfwTu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisLbpSfPfwTu","pdf",5995018,24,"English","# Building a Hunger-Free Future\n## Fiscal Year 2025 by the Numbers\n# How We Help\n# Faces of Our Community Volunteers\n# Donors\n# Neighbors\n# Partners\n# Board Members & Leadership Team\n# Looking Ahead\n# Expanding to Meet the Need Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond","[{\"question\":\"What major challenge does the report describe for people facing hunger in the region?\",\"answer\":\"The report describes rising living costs and reduced support that leave many neighbors making impossible choices about food alongside heat, medication, housing, and transportation.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the report say about the new distribution center?\",\"answer\":\"It states that a brand-new, purpose-built distribution center will open this winter to expand capacity, improve collaboration with Hunger Relief Partners, reduce operating costs, and increase the amount of food distributed.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report explain the scale of hunger relief activities during Fiscal Year 2025?\",\"answer\":\"It provides year-in-review figures such as neighbors served, total pounds of food distributed, meal equivalents, and average meals distributed per day, emphasizing the highest need seen in over 10 years.\"}]","Building a Hunger-Free Future - Annual Report 2025 | PDF",1791060297]
