At Conexus, we believe in lifting up the communities where we live and work. This September, we’re honored to spotlight Food Bank of the Rockies, an organization on the front lines of fighting hunger across Colorado and Wyoming.
🍎 Hunger in Our Community
Food insecurity continues to be a serious challenge:
- Families, children, and seniors are struggling to put meals on the table.
- Colorado food banks have reported up to a 40% rise in demand for food aid in recent years.
- Rising costs of living and inflation are pushing more people to seek help.
Access to nutritious meals isn’t just about today’s dinner—it impacts health, education, and long-term stability.
🏢 About Food Bank of the Rockies
Founded in 1978, Food Bank of the Rockies is the largest hunger-relief organization in the Rocky Mountain region. Their mission:
“Ignite the power of community to nourish people facing food insecurity.”
By the numbers:
- Provides enough food for 185,000+ meals every day.
- Works with 800+ Hunger Relief Partners (food pantries, shelters, and meal programs).
- Rescued 47 million pounds of fresh food in 2024 through their Food Rescue Program—keeping high-quality food out of landfills and onto tables.
Beyond food, they provide dignity, hope, and opportunity for neighbors across Colorado and Wyoming.
💙 Conexus Cares: Partnering for Impact
Through Conexus Cares, we commit to causes that support and uplift our community. Hunger relief is a core focus, and we’re proud to stand with Food Bank of the Rockies.
On September 24th, our Conexus team will volunteer at their Denver warehouse—helping sort, pack, and prepare food for distribution.
This effort reflects who we are:
- Protecting people from life’s uncertainties.
- Supporting neighbors in need.
- Building a stronger, healthier community together.
At Conexus, caring goes beyond insurance. Together with Food Bank of the Rockies, we’re working to fight hunger and nourish hope. Find out how you can get involved.
