Support the Greater Park Hill News

Support our 60-year tradition of delivering news of the neighborhood for free by making a donation to support the award-winning Greater Park Hill News. The newspaper, which is published monthly, is bundled and delivered by volunteers and distributed to approximately 13,000 homes and businesses in and around Park Hill.

General contribution

Financial contributions to our general fund help us do many things, like maintain our facility, keep our small part-time staff employed, publish our newspaper and continue our longstanding tradition of advocating on behalf of our neighborhood.

Food Programs contribution

These restricted contributions fund GPHC food programs, including the Emergency Food Pantry, Weekend Food Program and our annual Thanksgiving giveaway, as well as food projects with our outside partners.

Donate fresh, frozen, or non-perishable food.

If you are interested in donating fresh, frozen or non-perishable food, you can do so at our office (2823 Fairfax St) during our office hours. If you are making a large donation, it is preferable that you bring it directly to our office.

You can also drop off non-perishable items at the Park Hill Branch of Denver Public Library (4705 Montview Blvd) and Mayfair Liquors (1385 Krameria St.), both of which have collection bins just inside their respective entrances. 

We have several refrigerators and freezers. If you plan to donate a large quantity of items that need to be refrigerated or frozen, please contact us first so we can make sure we have room.

If you are interested in hosting a food or fund drive, please contact us in advance to discuss details.
