BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Members of the Denver7 team and a group of nearly three-dozen volunteers packed 681 backpacks for Colorado students at the second-ever Denver7 Gives Day volunteer event on Saturday.

The group, which included Denver7 morning anchors Anusha Roy and Dan Grossman, consumer investigator Jaclyn Allen, meteorologist Stacey Donaldson and reporter Ryan Fish, gathered at A Precious Child in Broomfield to pack backpacks with volunteers from the organization Saturday morning.

It’s part of Denver7’s commitment to connecting with – and giving back to – our communities. Denver7 Gives has long shared powerful stories that present opportunities for financial support. Now, we’ve made volunteerism a core part of the Denver7 Gives mission.

Saturday’s packing event was the second Denver7 Gives Day volunteer event. Back in March, a group of volunteers led by Denver7 chief meteorologist Lisa Hidalgo and traffic expert Jayson Luber gathered at Food Bank of the Rockies to pack 816 boxes – the equivalent of 22,000 meals – for Coloradans facing food insecurity.
