Boulder, CO – The Boulder County Sheriff’s Office is calling on the community to help families in need this weekend during its annual Help for the Holidays food drive. The event runs Saturday, November 15, from noon to 5 PM at 5600 Flatiron Parkway, with all donations benefiting Harvest of Hope, St. John Food Bank, and Sister Carmen.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, residents can drive up and drop off nonperishable food donations while meeting deputies and volunteers helping organize the event. The goal is to stock shelves for families struggling during the holiday season.
The items most in demand include baby formula, canned goods, peanut butter, baking mixes, beans, pasta, shelf-stable milk, and snack crackers. Instant meals, condiments, and bottled water are also appreciated, officials said.
The department emphasized that every donation, large or small, will go directly to helping families across Boulder County as colder weather and holiday costs increase the need for community support.
Residents unable to attend are encouraged to share information about the event or contribute directly to local food banks listed by the Sheriff’s Office.
