GREELEY, Colo. (Dec. 1, 2020) – As the COVID-19 pandemic hit Colorado last spring, the community responded with an incredible outpouring of donations and support for health care workers.
To better coordinate community goodwill that may come with the current COVID-19 surge, Banner Health and the hospital foundations in Larimer and Weld counties have created avenues to support local health care workers. Banner no longer will accept food donations at the hospitals.
“Health care staff has said gifts of meals and snacks have been some of the most uplifting things they’ve relied upon during the pandemic. Unfortunately, due to safety concerns and staffing, the hospitals can’t take food donations from the community,” said Carrie Haas-Vukosovich, Banner senior human resources business partner. Instead, leaders ask that people redirect funds to the foundations. This will allow leaders to plan meals for the teams and distribute them in a coordinated way.
