2019-2020 Program sites served with Jeffco Eats

This is our third year serving as a school year and summer mobile pantry. A mobile pantry means we deliver all the foods and no one comes to us. We strategically decided to deliver foods to first Title One Schools and other schools and Section 8 apartments in cities where no weekend food programs were operating. We selected first Lakewood, then Edgewater and Arvada and Wheat Ridge. We have served over 50 schools, apartment complexes, Kids Smart, JSEL, parks, recreation centers, head starts, elementary, middle and high schools, trailer parks. You name it we GO THERE !!

Here are the current school sites and apartments we are delivering to on Thursday for next 39 week school year:

We are helping bring more nutritious foods to 650 children and families at the following schools in Lakewood: Rose Stein, Lasley, Molholm, McLain, Vivian, Lakewood head start, Brady High School, West Gate, Bear Creek K 8, Carmody Middle School, and Deane Elementary.  We also serve weekly with our mobile pantry – Metro West housing communities of Lamar Station, Bel Mar, Cedar Grove, 5280, and Maplewood.
