Serving Up Hope Celebrates 31 Years of Making a Difference in the Community
Denver, CO, November 08, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Celebrating its 31st year, Serving Up Hope continues to unite meetings industry professionals in a shared mission: reconnecting with colleagues while giving back to the greater community.

In 2023, Serving Up Hope set a record, raising an impressive $44,340 through generous sponsorships and donations to benefit Food Bank of the Rockies. This year, Serving Up More Hope aims to surpass that achievement to support hunger relief efforts further.

Food Bank of the Rockies, the largest hunger-relief organization in the Rocky Mountain Region, distributes an average of 196,000 meals daily to individuals in need across Colorado and Wyoming.

Guided by a mission to “ignite the power of community to nourish people facing hunger,” Food Bank of the Rockies collaborates with hundreds of hunger-relief partners, offering food and essential supplies across the largest food bank coverage area in the contiguous United States.

In fiscal year 2024 alone, 417,317 were served, with 20% of recipients being children. Thanks to over 18,000 dedicated volunteers, every dollar donated to Food Bank of the Rockies can be transformed into three meals for those experiencing food insecurity.

The 31st annual Serving Up Hope, themed “Serving Up More Hope,” will be held on Thursday, November 14, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel, located at 1550 Court Place, Denver. An After-party will follow at Bezel Denver from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Meeting planners, event professionals, and vendors will gather to support the fight against hunger and positively impact the lives of those facing hardships.
