DENVER - The Struggle of Love Foundation, a non-profit based in Denver’s Montbello neighborhood recently learned they would lose a large portion of funding for their food bank.
HDFK provides a 10-year funding stream from taxes to invest in organizations that support Denver's low-income and under-served youth. The program is overseen by a commission which is appointed by the Mayor. The commission determines how the tax funding is allocated. “The migrant population that popped up, they are here before I get to work, I get to work at 8:30am and they're here waiting. They just wait with their children,” Hodge said.“The kids you know, when they come we try to find some snacks for him because they been sitting over there for so long,’ Hodge said.
“'We Don't Waste' came and said, ‘hey, you can come get some food from us. We can't give you money to pay, but at least you get some food’. Food Bank of the Rockies added us to be able to go pick up stuff...so we use our personal cars and pickup trucks to pick up the food. But that takes time, hours and gas and manpower. So now I got to ask these guys to do this for me for free,” Hodge said.
