About us
The Food Bank for Larimer County's mission is to provide food to all in need through community partnerships and hunger-relief programs. In FYE 2024, the Food Bank for Larimer County provided more than 10.2 million pounds of food to those in need. 42% of this food was produce and 9.4 million pounds of this food was rescued, meaning it would have been thrown away if we didn't intervene. We distribute food through three primary programs: Fresh Food Share No-Cost Markets, kids and senior meals programs, and our agency partner network. Our Fresh Food Share No-Cost Markets are client-choice, meaning clients get to select the food that is right for them and their families. With locations in Fort Collins and Loveland, both shopping locations offer a selection of purchased, donated, and government-funded food to income qualifying individuals. While some programs and food options are limited to those using government-supported programs, anyone who is experiencing food insecurity can shop at our two no-cost market locations. The Nutritious Kitchen prepares more than 200,000 nutritious meals and snacks annually for children and seniors in our community, while our Agency Partner Network works with more than 120 nonprofit partner agencies to provide food to the clients they serve. These organizations include food pantries, soup kitchens, after-school programs, and domestic violence shelters, and more. An estimated 50,000 Larimer County residents facing food insecurity receive assistance from the Food Bank each year. Our collective services and programs saved clients $38.2 million last year alone.
