Donations go ‘above and beyond’ during annual fundraiser for Community Kitchen
The Bank of Colorado staff presented a check for $11,273 to the Community Kitchen on Tuesday, Nov. 1, after the bank held a fundraiser in September.
Community Kitchen volunteer Beth Newkirk said the kitchen usually aims to raise $10,000 during its annual Empty Bowl fundraiser. However, this year in lieu of the Empty Bowl event, Bank of Colorado hosted a barbecue fundraiser for the Community Kitchen, where staff collected donations that exceeded the kitchen’s annual goal.
“They went above and beyond,” Newkirk said. “We live in such a great community.”
