With heavy hearts, Benefits in Action will close our Food Delivery Program effective April 30, 2026. The final day to request delivery will be April 24, 2026. This was an extremely difficult decision, and it has been an honor to serve our neighbors through this program.
Although we can no longer provide food directly, our team remains deeply committed to helping individuals and families apply for and access SNAP (food assistance) and other healthcare benefits essential to thrive. We will also continue connecting community members to trusted food banks, pantries, and other essential resources that support health, stability, and dignity.
If you are experiencing urgent or emergency food needs, call Colorado 2-1-1 or visit 211colorado.org to find food banks and pantries near you.
If you need assistance applying for SNAP or other public benefits, please call us at 720-221-8354, schedule an appointment online, or visit our website at www.benefitsinaction.org to learn more.
We are profoundly grateful to the community partners, volunteers, donors, and clients who made this program possible. Thank you for your trust, your partnership, and for allowing us to serve you.
As we move forward in our work to ensure communities thrive, your support matters more than ever. Please consider volunteering with Benefits in Action or making a gift to sustain our work. Thank you again for your support.

Since 2015, Benefits in Action has been a lifeline for neighbors through challenging times. Whether you've become unemployed, are considering retirement, or found yourself caring for an aging or ill loved one -- Benefits in Action's compassionate team of Navigators is ready to support YOU.
When our neighbors expressed challenges in accessing food resources, we launched our Food Delivery Program with one goal in mind - get food into the hands of those unable to travel to food resources in their community. Since then, with the help of hundreds of committed volunteers, we've served thousands of neighbors who were ill or vulnerable, lacked transportation, were living with a disability or otherwise homebound and experiencing hunger.
As food pantries began closing due to funding and food deserts became more vast, Benefits in Action saw an increase in requests for support. In 2024, our Food Delivery Program delivered 15.7K boxes of healthy food to the doorsteps of neighbors across the Denver metro when they needed it most.
Today, we are hard at work delivering healthy food to as many neighbors as possible with the support of food rescue partners, dedicated volunteers, and donors like YOU. We also connect neighbors to the other important health benefits and resources they need to thrive like Medicare, utility assistance, disability funds and more.
With looming funding uncertainties, the soaring cost of food and more demand than ever, we've had to adjust our services to deliver only to low-income, homebound neighbors over age 60.
YOUR GIFT can help the Food Delivery program reach & resource more neighbors experiencing hunger today!
