Bergelectric Denver looks forward to Packing PowerSacks with Food For Thought every year! This is the 13th year Food for Thought has shown up every week in local Denver Schools, to provide PowerSacks to students to take home to fight weekend hunger. On Oct 17, 2025, Denver employees bundled up to pack PowerSacks alongside numerous other volunteers.
“Every Friday, dedicated volunteers, including individuals, students, and corporate teams, gather to pack PowerSacks—each filled with non-perishable food items sufficient to feed a family of four through the weekend. These bags are distributed to students on Friday afternoons, ensuring they have enough to eat until they return to school on Monday. Our vision is to create a community where weekend hunger is no longer a barrier to a child’s education and success.
Today, Food for Thought Denver has grown into a vital lifeline for the community, serving 75 schools across the Denver area—all while remaining a 100% volunteer-driven organization.
Every school year, a staggering number of children from low-income families in Denver receive free and reduced lunches at school. Unfortunately, the lunch they receive at school on Friday is often the last meal they eat until back at school on Monday morning. Teachers and Principals consistently report that many students come to school on Monday mornings hungry, unable to focus and learn.”
We look forward to our continued partnership with Food for Thought. Click here for more information about Food for Thought.
