Registration is required to receive food at Covenant Cupboard.  You will be required to visit our new client desk on your first visit where the Food Bank of the Rockies Link2Feed application must be completed. If you already have a Link2Feed card from another Denver area food pantry that card will work at Covenant Cupboard and you will not need to register again.

Only registered clients are eligible for the special distributions such as toys at Christmas for the families children, back to school backpacks, and turkeys at Thanksgiving.
