Food Bank of the Rockies the real winner at Taste of the Broncos

DENVER --

The tent, which was just yards away from tender ribs and chocolate-covered desserts, didn’t draw a large crowd. There was no line that stretched 10 people deep, and there were no top-notch samples sitting on the table.

But at Tuesday night’s Taste of the Broncos event, that purple tent was the most important tent of all.

That’s where the Food Bank of the Rockies set up to educate Broncos fans and to recruit potential volunteers. The organization, which serves most of northern Colorado and all of Wyoming, helps more than 400,000 people annually, of which 70 percent are residents who have incomes at or below the federal poverty level.
