Bread & Broth looking for volunteers

Bread & Broth, a non-denominational ministry that prepares and serves meals twice a week at St. Theresa Church and Lake Tahoe Community Presbyterian Church, has several volunteer opportunities available.

Volunteers are needed for food preparation, food service, and clean-up. If you have some spare time on Monday or Friday afternoons and would like to volunteer with the Bread & Broth, attend the Bread & Broth Orientation Meeting, and Food Safety Class on Oct. 11 from 6-7pm in Grace Hall of St. Theresa Church on the corner of Lake Tahoe Boulevard and Lyons Avenue in South Lake Tahoe (1041 Lyons Ave).

Those interested in helping prepare and serve food will need to attend the food safety and sanitation class immediately following the orientation meeting that evening (7:15-8:30pm).

In addition, Bread & Broth is seeking individuals interested in helping with food pick-up at local grocery and retail stores, quarterly kitchen cleaning, food distribution on Tuesday and Friday afternoons, fund raising efforts, and communications support.

For more information on these opportunities, contact Diane Weidinger at (775)588.3993 or dianeweidinger@yahoo.com.
