Annual Report FYE 2015 - Food Bank for Larimer County

Food Bank for Larimer County
Donor Impact Report
FYE 2015
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your commitment to ending hunger in Larimer County. With
your support, last fiscal year we provided enough food for 7.4 million meals
and served nearly 36,000 individuals through our three hunger-relief programs:
Food Share, Food Link and Child Nutrition.
In FYE 2015, despite low unemployment rates in Larimer County, we continued
to see consistent need for our services. In fact, over the last four years, the
number of individuals we serve through our Food Share pantries has remained
relatively unchanged. Why would that be? We know that the costs of housing,
childcare, education, medical and other expenses make it difficult for thousands of households to make ends meet. As this seems to be the new reality in
our community, we’re starting to explore our role in helping our clients move
towards self-sufficiency.
One way we can have an impact is by providing healthy food. Recognizing the
link between health and hunger, we have placed particular emphasis on providing fresh produce for our Food Share clients. By providing and encouraging
healthy foods, we’re helping our clients manage diet-related diseases with the
hopes that they will be able to decrease medical expenses and/or return to
work. In addition to our continued efforts to source and distribute more fresh
produce, last year we expanded our Tasting Table program to share healthy
recipes and samples with our clients to encourage healthy eating. We’re also
reaching out to new partners to explore ways we can work together to provide
resources for our clients to improve health outcomes.
Amy Pezzani, CEO
Food Bank for Larimer County
With your continued support, this and future work is possible. Together, we can
end hunger, stabilize lives and build a vibrant community.

HUNGER-RELIEF PROGRAMS
Food Share
Our local food pantry, Food Share, is one of the largest,
client-choice, fresh food pantries in the nation with locations in Fort Collins and Loveland. In FYE 2015, our two
Food Share locations served 28,768 unduplicated individuals, a number that has remained nearly unchanged over
the last three years. We provided Food Share clients with
enough food for 1.5 meals per day, saving a family of four
$558 per month on food costs.
Child Nutrition Programs
In FYE 2015, the number of children living in food insecure households in Larimer County continued to hover
around 33%. Our Kids Cafe program prepared and served
a record number of healthy, cooked from scratch meals
and snacks (83,098 meals; 88,396 snacks). Our Backpack
program, in cooperation with Loveland Rotary and McKinney, provided 23,992 weekend food packs for homeless
Brandy’s Story
In 2010, Brandy was divorced and a single mom when
she lost her job. With a young daughter depending on
her, she knew she needed help and so she turned to
the Food Bank’s Food Share program. Once she started visiting the Food Bank, she was pleasantly surprised
that she was able to get fresh foods, including fruits and
vegetables. Brandy and her daughter started trying new
foods and found things that they really liked. Although
Brandy received SNAP benefits, at times, nearly 90% of
her family’s food came from the Food Bank.
and near homeless children. In addition to providing more
meals, under the direction of our Registered Dietitian and
new Community Kitchen Manager, 85% of each Kids Cafe
meal is made from scratch, including our buns, marinara
sauce and breakfast muffins.
Food Link
With a new partnership contract, a streamlined monitoring process and new outreach efforts, we added 10 new
partner organizations in FYE 2015. Food Link provided
food to 95 non-profit organizations. Food Link member
agencies included food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters
and snack programs that serve low-income populations.
In FYE 2015, we saved these partner agencies over $2.2
million on food expenses.
visit more often. Brandy’s daughter loves to join her mom
at the Food Bank and help plan family meals. After a trip
to the Food Bank, Brandy uses her limited resources to
purchase foods to complement the items she picks up at
Food Share. For Brandy, the assistance she receives from
the Food Bank means she gets to say “yes” to a small
treat, like a pack of gum, every once in a while for her
daughter. Thanks to the Food Bank, Brandy gets to do a
little something for her daughter that makes both of them
happy.
Today, Brandy works as a home care provider for elderly
clients. It’s a job she loves, but it doesn’t pay as well as
her old job. She works six days per week, nearly 40 hours,
so that she doesn’t have to pay childcare. This schedule also gives her more time to spend with her 10 year
old daughter, who has special needs, when she isn’t at
school. She depends on friends to watch her daughter
on Saturdays.
Although she’s working, Brandy is grateful that she can
continue to get food from the Food Bank to help her
make ends meet. With the recent change in Fort Collins’
Food Share hours, Brandy and her daughter are able to
Brandy and her daughter love to spend time
together on the Poudre River.

FEED, LEAD, STRENGTHEN & NOURISH
STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE
FEED
LEAD
Our feed initiative is designed to focus our resources on efforts that most effectively decrease food
insecurity and improve the health of our clients. To
provide access to more people, in June 2015, we
changed the days and hours of operation of our
Fort Collins Food Share facility. With this change,
between our two locations, we are now open 6 days
per week. In addition, the change in hours offers
time for clients who work traditional schedules to
visit after work. With the change, we’re serving an
additional 300-400 people per month, on average.
Also in FYE 2015, we began an extensive research
initiative to determine gaps in service, especially
with regards to seniors. We will use this data to help
inform our future plans for food distribution.
Using a variety of channels, our work in this area
focuses on mobilizing the public to help us achieve
our vision of a hunger-free Larimer County. In
FYE 2015, we launched a new website to increase
engagement and raise awareness. We continued
to utilize social media, particularly Facebook, to
inform and motivate our followers regarding events,
hunger statistics, programming and other relevant
issues. At the beginning of the year, we established
a Positive Community Perception Index (PCPI) to
measure changes in awareness year over year. Metrics include online engagement, media engagement
and individual engagement. After one year, our PCPI
increased 24%.
STRENGTHEN
NOURISH
Another area of focus is the strengthening of our
systems, including fundraising, food sourcing and
food distribution. In FYE 2015, we received grant
funding from Feeding America to participate in a
fund development assessment. Assessment results
provided eight recommendations that will serve
as areas of focus to strengthen our fundraising
efforts. In FYE 2015, we continued our work with
our sister food banks across the state to source and
share multiple truckloads of food each week made
available to us through the Feeding America choice
system. Additionally, we were a founding partner of
the Northern Colorado Food Cluster, whose mission
is to create a healthy community through a resilient
lcoal food system. In our efforts to ensure the highest standards, we completed and passed our first
AIB International food safety audit.
The focus of this initiative is to promote a culture
of nutrition and ensure an adequate supply and
access to healthy food options for all of our clients.
Under the guidance of our nutrition committee,
we created a Nutrition Policy Statement and set
nutrition goals for the organization. As part of our
passive nutrition education initiatives, we installed
nutrition-focused banners in our Fort Collins Food
Share and expanded our Tasting Table program to
four days per week. We also completed our third
client nutrition survey which will continue to guide
our work with our clients. We’ve also continued
to make improvements to our Kids Cafe menu and
now cook 85% of our menu items, including our
buns and bagels, from scratch to control sodium, fat
and sugar contents.

Volunteer Spotlight
Simon Turner joined the
Kids Cafe volunteer team 4
years ago after retiring from
teaching at the CSU Veterinary Hospital. He loves his
weekly kitchen shift because it gives him a chance
“to play with food”. Simon
credits his passion for cooking to Boy Scouts and his
mother. He likes that he’s
cooking for kids and enjoys
talking to the Food Bank
kitchen staff and other
volunteers about Kids
Cafe food and recipes.
Recently, Simon signed
up to become a Food
Bank volunteer ambassador and will put his
passion for storytelling
to work as he shares the
story of the Food Bank
with groups in the
community.
Kids Cafe volunteer, Simon
Turner, loves to “play with
food”.
