To the community,

Harrah’s-Harveys casinos generously sponsored a Bread & Broth Adopt-A-Day of Nourishment on June 3 at St. Theresa Church Grace Hall.

B&B is very thankful for their support in helping to feed the needy of our community. Their donation of $250 provided the evening’s guests with a delicious dinner consisting of baked ham accompanied by scalloped potatoes, green salad and fruit salad prepared by B&B’s first-week volunteer cooks’ team.

In addition to funding the dinner, Harrah’s-Harveys HEROs were on hand to assist the B&B volunteers with the dinner. HEROs is a volunteer group of Harrah’s-Harveys employees whose goal is to give back to the community throughout the year by fund raising and supporting causes which benefit the community. For this B&B Adopt-A-Day event, Sara Anderson, Pat Frega, Debbie Neall, Randy Sumner and Darlene Winkelman represented the HEROs employees. They were a “wonderful, experienced crew of volunteers” according to Nora Jones, the B&B volunteer coordinator for the evening.

As a community service organization, Bread & Broth is very grateful to have sponsors like Harrah’s-Harveys- casinos and their community minded HEROs employee organization hosting an Adopt-A-Day. Their involvement helps B&B feed the working poor, families in need, elderly on fixed incomes as well as those living outdoors in our community.

If you would like to support Bread & Broth, please contact me at (530) 542.2876 or carolsgerard@aol.com.

Carol Gerard, Bread & Broth
