Local food banks receive donations from All West

The Green River and Rock Springs food banks were included in food bank donations made by All West Communications and CoBank.

The donations, amounting to more than $5,000, were made to six food banks in Wyoming and Utah. This is the third year All West has donated to food banks in Sweetwater County.

The company operates its Community Connections program that provides donations and support for non-profit groups, community events and neighbors, contributing more than $50,000 to various causes.

All West generally hosts food drives at its offices, collecting non-perishable goods for donation along with a cash donation.

Because the COVID-19 pandemic continues be a concern, All West opted to not host the annual food drive and provide only a monetary donation this year.

CoBank, based out of Greenwood Village, Colorado, doubled the donations made by All West through its Sharing Success program. Since 2012, they’ve partnered with customers to contribute more than $56 million in combined donations.

CoBank gives to groups such as volunteer fire departments, local schools, and hunger relief programs.
