At Altura Elementary School in Aurora, many students come from struggling families that experience food and housing insecurity. The administrators at Altura are teaming up with Bright Horizons Learning Center at Fitzsimons on the CU Anschutz Medical Campus to collect backpacks and easily made food supplies. You can help by dropping off donations in the CLAS Dean’s Office (NC 5012) through the end of the month. Preferred items include easy to prepare, pre-packaged foods, such as macaroni and cheese packets, mashed potato packets, rice packets, packets of tuna or chicken, microwaved meals that do not need to be refrigerated, jello and pudding cups, granola bars/protein bars.
