Our agency partners make it possible! 🧡

We were honored to host over 100 representatives from our agency partners at our annual conference on August 8th. These dedicated men and women represented agencies from all four counties in our service area.

Our breakout groups included both informational and relational networking opportunities between agencies and the sharing of information on resources and needs.

It's just one way we're all working together to fight food insecurity in our area.

Did you know in our community 1 in 7 adults face food insecurity every single day?

But when people have consistent access to nutritious food, they are better able to focus, work, care for their families, and contribute to their communities.

Access to nourishment helps unlock stability, opportunity, and well-being.

Together, we can help ensure more people have what they need to thrive. 🧡

Numbers that really add up! 📊

A huge thank you to the fantastic team from CPAmerica who spent a recent afternoon with us at Bread of the Mighty!

This awesome crew spent their warehouse shift sorting through essential supplies, including fresh bread, pastries, and potatoes.

Their hard work directly helped us feed 1,156 of our local neighbors! 🧡🥔🍞

We are so grateful for local organizations that step up to serve and make a tangible difference in our community. Thank you, CPAmerica, Inc., for your energy, dedication, and support! 👏🎉

Did you know that a big part of how we operate efficiently is through back hauling?

When our trucks deliver food out into the community, they don’t come back empty. They stop at stores and farms on their return trip, picking up donations and bringing them straight to our warehouse.

That means if you see one of our trucks on the road, we guarantee it’s filled with food.

It’s one of the ways we make every mile, and every pound, go further.
