This year marked the 26th year of this great tradition within Broncos Country! With Annabel Bowlen and Peggy Shanahan leading the charge alongside many players, coaches and staff member wives collecting cash donations at all of the gates prior to the game. Many of wives even came with their children to help collect donations and to meet the Broncos Fans.
The Broncos Wives would like to thank ALL of the Broncos Fans that contributed helping them raise nearly $40,000 in cash donations and over 1600 pounds of food donations in their effort to support hunger and homelessness initiatives in Denver.
Cash donations are given to Denver Broncos Charities and distributed in the form of grants to Denver area non-profit organizations that help the hungry and homeless. The non-perishable food donations are given to COMPA Food Bank Ministry and distributed to area food pantries.
