Beef Sticks for Backpacks

Thank you for visiting Beef Sticks for Backpacks where our mission is to create a world where no child in Colorado suffers from weekend food insecurity. Beef Sticks for Backpacks was formerly Beef Bank Colorado and underwent a name change to more clearly express to donors and potential donors what the initiative sets out to do. With our new name, it’s clear- We put beef sticks in backpacks for the kids of Colorado. We’re a non-profit organization committed to the goal of distributing high quality, high protein beef sticks into kids backpack programs throughout the state of Colorado. Formed by members of the Colorado agriculture community – our goal is to raise funds that will be used to produce our very own Colorado “beef sticks” that will be placed in the “pak” of every child involved in a backpack program in the state of Colorado. With the help of KidsPak of Loveland, Five Rivers Cattle Feeding, Arcadia Asset Management, Colorado Cattlemen’s Association, Colorado Livestock Association, Colorado State University, and many others we have been able to provide every food insecure child in Larimer County with one beef stick every weekend. Our long term goal is to expand our program to the rest of the state. Together we can end hunger and feed minds.
