I love being able to use the power of storytelling to bring people together around shared values, shared experiences, or even shared suffering. It's the power of those stories that have led to victories over the years that no one expected me and my teams to win.
Denver park officials’ controversial program to kill hundreds of Canada geese came full circle Friday when Metro Caring announced that goose meat would be used to feed the hungry.
It’s a much-needed boost for the nonprofit food bank, which has seen a 300% increase in demand in recent months. In all, Metro Caring received about 350 pounds of goose meat, which — at a pound per person — could feed nearly 90 families of four. However, the meat is tested by both the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. And despite disagreements over the culling program, the meat is desperately needed. We should be talking about why one in three Coloradans are experiencing hunger and don’t know where their next meal is coming from during a health pandemic and economic crisis.
