For Bread & Bread there is so much to be thankful for as the year 2020 comes to an end. The organization would like to acknowledge all of the members of the Lake Tahoe South Shore community who have so generously supported our efforts to feed and help those in need during this holiday season.
Thanks to the overly abundant generosity of donors to our ‘Thanksgiving Meal Giveaway’, there was funding left over for Bread & Broth to host a ‘Christmas Meal Giveaway’ on Monday December 21. In addition to our basic giveaway staples of dairy products, bread/pastries, and fresh fruit and vegetables, Bread & Broth’s Christmas meal included a ham, pineapples, scalloped potatoes, fixings for a green bean casserole, and sparking apple cider.
