Any comments about your selections you would like to share with the student philanthropists?
House of Bread works to prevent hunger and build community through our daily lunch program. We serve lunch 365 days of the year in both our main dining room and our family dining room. Families with children 17 years and younger enter and eat in our family dining space where they feel most welcomed. Other guests enter and eat in our main dining room. About half of our guests are homeless persons and we work to try and connect them with a variety of resources including housing.
