  • Celebrating 5 Years a Quick Note from Our Executive Director
    Colorado Springs Food Rescue’s 2018 Annual Report Celebrating 5 Years A Quick Note from our Executive Director Following the previous year of sticky note-laden strategic planning, 2018 came and went in a livelier fashion than any of us could’ve imagined over at CSFR. This past year found CSFR in the driver’s seat of a variety of new initiatives, including a composting social enterprise, expanded food access partnerships, and the acquisition of a 3.5 acre parcel of land that we’ll be developing into a neighborhood food center in the years to come. But none of this could be possible without your support. Whether you navigate a weekly food rescue shift, invest in our work through a foundation, help operate a no-cost grocery program, grow some extra vegetables in your backyard, or participate in our Friends of CSFR campaign, it is an honor to work alongside you in cultivating a healthier, more equitable community. In deepest gratitude, Zachariah Chapman Executive Director 1 Mission To cultivate a healthy, equitable food system in the greater Colorado Springs community. We believe in building healthier communities through a healthier food system, and accomplish our mission through three integrated pillars of action: Increasing Nutritious Food Access, Food Education & Food Production. Our Team Zac Chapman - Executive Director Shane Lory - Director of Operations Patience Kabwasa - Director of Programs Elissa Salama - Communications & Development Manager Rachel Followill - Volunteer Coordinator Cordelia Fees-Armstrong - Program Coordinator Natalie
