Community Food Share
-A Louisville food bank. Community Food Share’s mission: To be a leader in our community’s effort to end hunger in Boulder and Broomfield Counties.
We collect donated food from many sources, and store the donated food in our warehouse where it is sorted, packaged, and checked for spoilage. Over 40 local human service agencies rely on us for free food to pass on to their clients. We also operate programs like the Feeding Families program which provides free food to families with school children living in poverty.

Running Start
Our Mission Statement: To provide women with barriers to fitness the confidence, courage and community support they need to change their lives through running.
Who? We pair Beginner Runners – women who have always wanted to start running but have barriers to fitness – with Personal Motivators – women who have found strength, confidence and courage through running and want to pay it forward.
What? We give them the tools to start running and train for their very first 5k.
How? Through an incredible, supportive community of runners and partners, we are able to give Beginners the running start they need to change their lives!
Our Three Pillars: Educate – Motivate – Transform
