Food for Hope has been supporting Westminster Public Schools in a special food program where we pack and distribute Unhoused Student and Family Food Boxes. Each box contains easy-to-make meals and a bag of fresh items. During the 2023 to 2024 school year, we proudly distributed a total of 740lbs of food to Westminster Public Schools. As we approach the 2024 to 2025 school year, we look forward to growing and serving more students and families at their school. City of Westminster.

In the fall of 2021, Food for Hope started supporting Pinnacle Charter School. Within Pinnacle Charter School's Event Center, we established one of our in-school food banks, Timby's Tienda, which provides essential support to local students and their families. A unique feature of this food bank is that families can order their food online, and volunteers then pack and distribute the orders to students and families each week. We are immensely grateful to have this beautiful space at The Event Center inside Pinnacle.
