To the community,

Over the years, Bread & Broth has developed many supportive partnerships with Tahoe South Shore community organizations, businesses, churches and individuals. Every one of these partnerships brings something positive and unique to help B&B ease hunger for those in need. For almost a year now, Tahoe Restaurant Group has been providing resources to support both St. Theresa’s B&B’s Monday evening dinner program and B&B 4 Kids program.

Tahoe Restaurant Group’s Azul Latin Kitchen and Base Camp Pizza have both sponsored an Adopt a Day of nourishment, with the most recent sponsorship on April 4.  At the Monday evening dinner, Azul Latin Kitchen staff members jumped right in using their food service skills to provide a great B&B dinner experience for the evening’s guests.

“We all had such a positive experience helping those in our community,” said Rachel Ervin, who is a bartender at Azul Latin Kitchen.  Also volunteering were fellow workmates Josh Setzer, Emerson Fuentes, Lauren Sullivan, Philip Peacock and Natashia Nielson.

In addition to hosting Adopt A Days, the restaurants have helped tremendously by sending crews of two to three volunteers almost every Monday evening to work the dinner’s cleanup detail. Since the inception of the B&B 4 Kids program, the Tahoe Restaurant Group has also been donating the funds collected at Base Camp Pizza’s mic night to provide weekend food to the community’s food insecure K-8 grade students.

B&B would like to extend our sincerest thanks to the Tahoe Restaurant Group and its team member for their partnership with our program and all that it has done to improve the service we provide to the needy members of our community.

Carol Gerard, Bread & Broth
