This Spring, the Redland team took a break from our usual landscape architecture, land planning, and civil engineering services to lend a hand in our community.

Several times a year, Redland staff volunteer with local nonprofits.  This April, we returned to Food For Thought (FFT), a Denver nonprofit that strives to eliminate student hunger outside the classroom by providing weekend meals for children who live in families that are at-or-below the poverty level.   These students rely on school-provided lunches during the week, but often do not receive adequate nourishment over the weekend.  The FFT weekend meals, which they call “PowerSacks”, provide essential weekend nutrition for these students.

Our team arrived early and worked hard through the morning to pack weekend meals for several thousand kids.  We had a great time and will be back soon!
