Participate in the THANKS(for)GIVING Food Drive in 3 Easy Steps

Join DMAR's YPN (Young Professionals Network) in helping those in need by collecting non-perishable items at your office to donate to the Food Bank of the Rockies.

Below you will find everything you need to know to join this year's Food Drive. Let's fight hunger and feed hope together!

 

What is THANKS(for)GIVING?

THANKS(for)GIVING is an annual food drive taking place between now and November 30th to collect food and donations for the Food Bank of the Rockies, which provides food for more than 411,000 people and works to distribute 121,000 meals a day. The Food Drive is also a friendly competition between participating offices.  This is your chance to help make a difference this holiday season & earn some bragging rights if your office collects the most donations. ( The top 3 offices will be featured on the DMAR website, on social media, in our newsletter, in our monthly emag and in a press release).
