Avs Hosting Canned Food Drive On Wednesday

The Colorado Avalanche, Kroenke Sports Charities, Ball Corporation and the Denver Rescue Mission are partnering to host the annual Do What YOU CAN Food Drive.

Both canned food and monetary donations will be collected at the entrances to Pepsi Center prior to the Avs taking on the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday.

Collection will start when event doors open at 6:30 p.m. and will conclude midway through the first period.

All donations will go to Denver Rescue Mission, helping with its efforts to provide 650,000 meals to those in need each year.

Ball Corporation will also be making a $10,000 donation to the Denver Rescue Mission this holiday season.
