To the community,

The employees of the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit were the evening’s Adopt A Day of Nourishment sponsors for the meal served by Bread & Broth on April 27.

Through their Wellness, Recreation and Morale committee, the local U.S. Forest Service employees donated the funds during events held last December to cover the $250 donation needed to host an Adopt A Day.

As an all volunteer, nonprofit organization Bread & Bread truly appreciates that the our local Forest Service employees have donated so generously due to their concerns about those who struggle with hunger in our Lake Tahoe South Shore community.  With the funds raised by the Forest Service employees, B&B was able to provide all of the food, supplies and utilities needed to serve over 120 meals and “to go” containers.

Helping the B&B volunteers at the dinner were Forest Service employees Karen Kuentz, Jordan Burge, Melraine Johnson, Tom Fuller and Katie Kuchenbecker. With input from his fellow sponsor crew members, Fuller wrote, “The Wellness, Recreation and Morale Committee of the LTBMU were happy to support B&B with both our time and funds raised by our fellow employees.  We enjoyed the opportunity to help serve our community.”
