Mission Statement

Our Mission is to provide healthy supplemental food to Boulder families and individuals in need of food assistance within a safe, welcoming and non-judgmental environment.

Description

Harvest of Hope Pantry is a Boulder-based non-profit providing food assistance in a grocery-store like environment.
Harvest of Hope Pantry helps relieve the stress of food insecurity and offer a sense of hope for individuals and families in Boulder. We feel we can best do this by providing an outlet for food items to those in need in a non-judgmental, safe and caring environment. Our client-choice model allows people to select their food in pantry setting. Donated food items in our community simply need a more effective way to reach those in need. We focus on the re-distribution of food and donated personal hygiene items.
