Letter: Heavenly returns to Bread & Broth

To the community,

To help address the needs of the hungry of our community, Bread & Broth, a nonprofit, all volunteer organization, has been serving free, nutritious meals for all who come to our Monday dinner at St. Theresa Grace Hall. 

To fund these meals, B&B invites individuals, families, businesses and service clubs/organizations to sponsor an Adopt A Day of Nourishment. By donating a tax-deductible gift of $250, up to 110 people will be fed and up to five folks from the sponsor group can participate alongside the B&B volunteers at their sponsorship dinner.

Thanks to Vail’s EpicPoromise grant, Heavenly and Kirkwood mountain resorts each sponsor six AADs annually and on June 26 the AAD sponsor crew from Heavenly Mountain Resort’s product, sales and services team hosted the dinner. The B&B volunteers always look forward to having a Vail Resorts crew because frequently the team members are repeat volunteers who know the dinner’s routine and are always fun loving and outstanding workers.

The Heavenly PSS team was no exception. Led by Megan Madrid, senior manager, her team included Jared Autio, assistant manager; Chris Barbar, scanning manager; Devon Kornak, team lead; and Mary Taylor-Cooper, supervisor. Speaking for her team, Madrid wrote, “It feels really good to work with the Bread & Broth organization who is so involved in giving back to the community.”   

Bread & Broth feels very fortunate and is very grateful to partner with Vail Resorts and their wonderful team members who feel it is so important to help those in need in our community.
