Hunger Free Hotline answers record number of calls

by | Jan 18, 2017

Our statewide, food resource hotline is a one-stop shop for families and individuals in need of food assistance. Navigators are able to help Coloradans find food resources in their local neighborhoods, complete food stamp applications, and even provide useful information to those looking to donate or volunteer. All calls are kept confidential.

In the last six months, the Hunger Free Hotline has fielded 4,738 calls, which is 1,200 more calls than this time last year. Additionally, through ongoing partnerships with local hospitals and clinics, doctors have referred more than 2,200 people to Hunger Free Colorado who may not always know when or where they will get their next meal.

Thanks to our great team of Food Assistance Navigators and many partners for connecting Coloradans to the fuel needed to thrive!
