DENVER - On November 27, 2024, Governor Polis celebrated Thanksgiving by serving holiday meals at the Denver Rescue Mission.

“This Thanksgiving I hope all Coloradans are able to spend time with family and friends celebrating with good food, reflecting on what we are thankful for, and helping on our neighbors and community members whether it’s by helping shovel the driveway of an elderly neighbor or bringing extra food to someone down on their luck. Today serving meals to those in need and connecting with fellow Coloradans, I was reminded why we continue working every day to create a compassionate Colorado for all,” said Governor Polis.

The Governor spent the afternoon volunteering at Denver Rescue Mission’s Holiday Lunch Service. Denver Rescue Mission is a Denver-based non-profit that for over 132 years has been committed to providing emergency services, rehabilitation, transitional programs, and community outreach to individuals experiencing homelessness and addiction in Denver.
