Ending hunger at its root.
As a leading anti-hunger organization in Colorado, Metro Caring works with our community to meet people’s immediate need for nutritious, culturally relevant food while building a movement to end hunger at its root causes.
Fresh Foods Market
Everyone needs fresh and nutritious food to live happy, healthy lives. We welcome anyone to shop in our free grocery store stocked with locally sourced and donated products.
Programs & Events
Join a cooking class. Hone your story. Learn about the root causes of hunger. Our multilingual and community-led programs invite people from all cultures and ages.
Volunteering
Build community with a diverse group of volunteers, working side-by-side in a fast-paced and fun environment. Bring yourself, your friends, or your team from work!
Our Impact
Shoulder-to-shoulder with our community, we are reimagining our local food system. By reversing health and economic trends for those hit hardest by food insecurity and empowering community leaders to fight for better policies, we can uproot the systems that force people to go hungry.
