Not every business opens its doors with a giving heart, Shake Shack did.⁣
⁣
We are so grateful for their generosity on opening day at their newest Pennsylvania location. Their decision to give $1 from every burger and sandwich sold to Downtown Daily Bread meant that every single customer who walked through those doors became part of our mission.⁣
⁣
We watched that day unfold with full hearts, and by the end of it, they had raised $1,267 for the neighbors we serve every day.⁣
⁣
This is what local partnership looks like. This is what it means to open your doors with your community in mind.⁣
⁣
We're honored to have been part of your opening chapter. Thank you for believing in us and in Harrisburg.⁣

There's something special that happens when good people gather for a good cause. 🌱⁣⁣
⁣⁣
On April 12th, our community came together at Strawberry Square for Plants + Pints, and the room was full of exactly the kind of energy that fuels our mission. The impact of your generosity will be felt right here in Harrisburg.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Every dollar raised goes directly to Downtown Daily Bread and the neighbors we serve every day. Together, we raised $8,000. 💚⁣⁣
⁣⁣
To everyone who showed up and made this possible: thank you. This event exists because of people like you.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
A heartfelt thank you to Sara Bozich and Harristown Enterprises for once again making this event possible. We're so grateful.⁣⁣

There’s something powerful about community coming together for a cause. 🤍

We’re excited to share that our Executive Director was featured on Good Day PA on ABC27 to talk about the upcoming Plants + Pints event!

Join us this Sunday, April 12th, at Strawberry Square, not just for a great time, but for something bigger.

All proceeds from Plants + Pints directly support Downtown Daily Bread, helping us provide meals and essential services to our Harrisburg community. Last year alone, this event raised $7,000 to fuel this mission.

Because when we show up together, we create real impact in our communities.

A special thank you to Sara Bozich for coordinating this event and for thinking of us once again. Your support makes a difference.

We can’t wait to see you there!

Homelessness and hunger don't take days off. Neither do we.⁣⁣
⁣
As a gateway to basic human services in Harrisburg, we see firsthand the difference that consistent support makes. That's why Tröegs Independent Brewing Perpetual Friday campaign is so powerful.⁣
⁣
What We Do:⁣
⁣
➙ provide immediate access to food and shelter⁣
⁣
➙ connect individuals to long-term resources⁣
⁣
➙ restore dignity and hope to our neighbors in need⁣
⁣
The beauty of Tröegs' ALEtruism program? It brings together people who believe in making our corner of the world better.⁣

What does $1 actually do? Let us show you.⁣
⁣
Every dollar from Tröegs Independent Brewing ALEtruism campaign creates tangible impact:⁣
⁣
$1 might seem small, but its impact is powerful. ⁣
⁣
➤ Helps provide basic necessities for someone moving into a new home⁣
⁣
➤ Allows us to restock our pantry for low-income families and neighbors experiencing hunger⁣
⁣
➤ Helps us serve a meal to 150 people in our community⁣
⁣
Multiply that across every Friday in February, and we're talking about significant resources that directly serve individuals experiencing homelessness and hunger in Harrisburg.⁣
⁣
When someone receives a meal, they have energy to seek opportunities. When someone accesses shelter, they can focus on stability. When someone feels seen, they remember hope exists.⁣
⁣
This is what community partnership looks like.⁣

We’ve been selected as the beneficiary of Tröegs Independent Brewing ALEtruism Perpetual Friday Campaign, an initiative that gives back to organizations doing meaningful work across Central PA. 🧡

Every Friday in February, will donate $1 from every draft pour of Perpetual IPA directly to our mission of serving our neighbors experiencing homelessness and hunger.

This means more meals served, expanded services, and direct impact on our community.

Your part? Stop by Tröegs any Friday in February, enjoy a Perpetual IPA, and know you're making a difference. Tag a friend who needs to know about this! 🙌🏽
