Imagine a Community Without Hunger


Your kind donation provides a stable source of affordable, fresh food for the Golden, Colorado community and this is the pathway to a community without hunger.

No one should have to worry about where their next meal will come from.

 Setting up a monthly gift of any amount is crucial to providing direct assistance to Golden's food-insecure families. Your compassionate donation to BGOLDN paves the way to a healthier and more equitable future for us all.

Support BGOLDN's unique multi-program, community-driven approach.

Your generous donation, in any amount, helps ensure that over 400 Golden families receive meals each month, that nourishing school snacks are provided to seven Golden-area schools throughout the year, and that BGOLDN can continue to connect Golden parents to a network of community resources that will assist in supporting their families. 

Proudly working together to build community in Golden, CO.



-Our Fresh Food Pantry provides a stable source of nutritious, fresh, culturally relevant foods to approximately 360 families on a monthly basis. Food support through our Pantry helps families alleviate the costs of things like childcare, healthcare, rent and transportation expenses.

- Our Nourishing Success School Programs provide immediate nutritional needs to students during their school day, which includes a snack program that fuels a child’s ability to learn and focus. We support schools where up to 70% of their students face challenges with food insecurity. 

- Our Unique Programs respond to needs such as accessibility barriers. Programs include partnerships and our grocery delivery service. Our partnership programs improve access to fresh, healthy, and culturally appropriate food. For example, our Farmers Market program offers families an opportunity to shop at Golden's Farmers Market for local meats, produce and dairy. Another program, in collaboration with local nonprofit GoFarm, brings a Farmers Market on wheels to underserved neighborhoods. Our grocery delivery service offers a weekly source of Fresh Food Pantry provisions to those who need our services but are experiencing accessibility challenges.
