Many people in Longmont are struggling with money right now. The cost of food, rent, and other basics keeps going up, making it harder for families to pay their bills. At the same time, our local food banks are busier than ever as more people reach out for support.

 

The city has created a list of resources that can help if you need food. You’ll also find information about organizations you can donate to or volunteer with if you want to help your neighbors.

 

When we work together, we can make a real difference.
