Acompáñenos mañana para profundizar en el trabajo que hemos realizado con la campaña del Fondo de Justicia Alimentaria en los últimos dos años y planificar las iniciativas de incidencia hasta 2026.

Have you heard of the Southwest Food Coalition?

We’re over 50 members strong — schools, churches, pantries, residents, and community groups right here in Southwest Denver working together to get good food to people in need.

Right now, we’re preparing to take care of our community in November when SNAP benefits are frozen. Our partners are already working beyond capacity — but we’re ready to step up again.

The SWFC has box trucks, a warehouse, a driver, and decades of collective experience – not to mention experience operating through the pandemic. We’re experts in getting food to where it’s needed most.

Most importantly, we’re strong because we ARE the community.
When times get tough, Southwest Denver comes together — we organize, we share, and we take care of each other. 💪❤️

We’ll keep sharing updates as we mobilize — but in the meantime, reach out if you want to support or get involved.
