Wherever hunger rises, so can we.
About us
Food Bank of the Rockies (FBR) was founded in 1978 and was known as the Colorado Food Clearing House. Operating from a 900-square-foot schoolroom in northwest Denver, the fledgling organization collected food from nearby Safeway stores and distributed it to one agency. Today, FBR has extended its reach across Northern Colorado and Wyoming, providing food supplies to more than 600 hunger-relief programs. Since 1978, FBR has provided food for families in need. Last year, we distributed nearly 49 million meals, enough to provide more than 134,000 meals each day. Food Bank of the Rockies is a BBB accredited charity and holds a 4-Star Rating from Charity Navigator. 96¢ of every dollar we receive goes toward our hunger relief programs.

I want to take a moment to spotlight the great work of some of my OFSE colleagues who recently took part in a volunteer event at the Food Bank of the Rockies - a charity that aids individuals experiencing food insecurity in Colorado and Wyoming. Our team collectively prepared over a whopping 3,000 meals that will help feed Coloradans experiencing food insecurity, many of whom are children. This is a great example of our Baker Hughes values in action. Thank you all to those involved- help always makes a difference! #BakerHughes #WeAreBakerHughes #Community #Care #FoodBankOfTheRockies

Earlier this month, members from our Research/Strategy and FP&A teams came together to support a great cause at Food Bank of the Rockies. A big shoutout to Thomas Flocco, Thomas Dean, Alex Gronewoller, David Loewenthal, Dan Hoffmann, and Kevin Kranz for their time and effort. Together, the team prepared 100 pallets of food, totaling 38,612 lbs., and created 32,023 meals for those in need. Thank you to everyone for making a difference! #TeamOmniTRAX #CommunitySupport #VolunteerDay #FoodBank #FoodBankoftheRockies #OmniTRAX

Giving back at Poppulo ✨ Food Bank of the Rockies is an organization we support as often as we can through our company volunteering initiative 🙌 Poppulo colleagues come together to volunteer with one of the largest hunger relief organizations in the Rocky Mountain region, distributing more than 196,000 meals a day. This is a chance for colleagues to step away from their laptops and roll up their sleeves to sort and pack thousands of food items to ensure it gets to those who need it most. It’s been fantastic to see so many colleagues interested in supporting this cause. A massive thank you to some of our regular volunteers—Blaine Grady, Randell Cameron, Rachel Hood, Alexandra Celenza, Beau Biernacki, Ward Saunders, Tyler Spence, Jared Hopson and all the others who have taken part. #Volunteering #GivingBack #Poppulo

On Friday, I had the opportunity to participate in West Monroe's Day of Service, which included volunteering with Food Bank of the Rockies in Denver, CO! My team packaged up 6,600 lbs of beverages that will be distributed to families across Colorado and Wyoming. It was rewarding to support one of the farthest reaching food banks in the US and work towards reducing food insecurity. #DayOfService

On Saturday, I had the privilege of volunteering for Food Bank of the Rockies with Mikayla from ASA Electrical Solutions, the lovely ladies of Rexel USA’s WIRe (Women in Rexel) group and many others in Brighton, Colorado. We served over 150 families in need of nourishment to better strengthen the community, and we had fun doing it even though it was an absolute scorcher. 😅☀️ Looking forward to doing it again soon!
