About 200,000 pounds was collected at our 5 metro area locations alone. Those donations will go to our partner, Food Bank of the Rockies.

Money collected is used to purchase foods requested by local food banks and pantries.
You can also still drop off new or used coats to our partner Coats for Colorado at any Dependable Cleaners location through the end of November.
New or gently used toys are still being accepted by the Denver Santa Claus Shop through December 5. They can be dropped off at Denver Mattress locations or Larry H Miller car dealerships.
