3ZERO3 Motorsports Canned Food Drive 2009

The cold of winter is upon us, and we are not just talking about snow and freezing temperatures.

In Denver, the financial crisis has pushed hard working families out of jobs and out of homes and onto the street. The increasing number of not just homeless people, but homeless families has put a unique strain on non-profit organizations like never before. With reduced revenue from governments and private sector  alike, there is currently less financial support for these now over burdened social agencies.

Did you know that in Denver :

  • 43% of the Denver homeless population are women and children ?
  • Many people  and families have become homeless because of a job layoff or a health care crisis?
  • Over 40% of people in Denver homeless shelters are working ?

3ZERO3 Motorsports is making a pointed effort to do what we can, as individuals, as community members, and as a business to support the needy here in our own backyard.  Our first such effort this holiday season is the creation of the 3ZERO3 Motorsports canned food drive.  The 3ZERO3 Motorsports Canned Food Drive 2009 will benefit :

  • The Denver Rescue Mission
  • The Rocky Mountain Food Bank

    This should give everyone the perfect reason to look in their cabinets and see what can be donated. To all – If you don’t have anything, pick a few items up to donate from the store. A few dollars can go along way this holiday season for less fortunate and homeless families. Great post Max and the 3ZERO3 Staff!
