Meals to feed nearly 6,000 seniors, veterans and families this Thanksgiving will be cut unless the Epworth Foundation raises $100,000 by Thursday.

“This year we have not gotten the individual support because a lot of people had been focused on the elections,” Epworth Foundation spokeswoman L.J. Harker said.

Within two weeks, the foundation that runs Daddy Bruce’s Thanksgiving meal distribution received 5,687 requests for baskets. Each one costs between $30 to $35 to produce. Harker said the foundation has only raised half of what is needed to meet that demand.

The foundation also experienced a “drastically increased” number of requests for baskets. Four other food banks near them have recently shuttered their services. Meanwhile, more than 100,000 people moved to Colorado between 2014 and 2015, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

“We’re feeling this extra 100,000 people in this community,” Harker said. “There’s just not enough to go around.”

Harker said she hopes the foundation’s social media campaign asking for $10 from 10,000 goes viral. But if the money is not raised, Harker said the foundation is not sure where or how cuts will be made.

“We are making a lot of tough choices that we don’t want to,” Harker said. “We have to tell people no.”

The foundation is also asking for 1,000 volunteers to help with Nov. 19’s meal distribution for two-hour shifts. Thirty volunteers with strong backs are needed to set the stage for distribution starting at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 18, and ending at 5 a.m. on Saturday.
