To the community,

Returning for his second Adopt a Day of Nourishment sponsorship of the year, Jeremy Woodford hosted Bread & Broth’s Monday meal on Jan. 15. Woodford returned with Barbara and Craig Brittain, who also volunteered at his Jan. 1 sponsorship.   

This trio of helpers assisted the B&B volunteers in serving the 76 dinner guests who came to St. Theresa Grace Hall for a hot, nutritious meal. At the Mexican themed dinner, the diners had a choice of beef enchiladas, pork enchiladas, refried beans, festive veggies, green salad, fruit salad and a variety of pies, cookies and cakes for dessert. 

Woodford believes that “helping others is the best way to feel better!” As a young boy, he and his family would attend B&B weekly meals and now as an adult he is able to help others and is doing so by feeding those in need. With Woodford’s $300 sponsorship donation, not only is he helping to provide full-course meals, his contribution also helps fund the purchase of fruits, vegetables and dairy products for the food giveaway bags.

B&B is very thankful to Woodford and his helpful crew for their support of the organization’s mission of easing hunger. As a nonprofit, all volunteer organization, B&B relies on the on-going donations it receives to continue its service to those struggling with hunger. Thanks to our very generous donors, B&B in addition to serving its Monday meal at Grace Hall, also provides a dinner at Second Serving, a soup and simple entrée meal served every Friday from 4-5pm at Lake Tahoe Community Presbyterian Church.
