With the continuation of federal employees not being able to work, LifeBridge Food Pantry expects to have more people needing their help in the coming weeks. Please keep them in mind for donations of food, cash or gift cards. Donations can be made directly on their website www.LifeBridgeCo.org or at their food drive January 19 from 1-5pm at Conifer King Soopers (25637 Conifer Rd, Conifer, CO).

If you are in need, please come to the pantry Friday between 3 and 5 pm or Saturday between 9am and 12pm. 288 Main Street in Bailey.

They are a registered 501 (c)3 and all resources stay in our community.
