Our Mission
Feeding our community collaboratively and
providing connections that enable lasting change.
Our Story
Our Daily Bread is an organization established in 2017 from a combination of several local food pantries. Instead of continuing to do a little bit separately, they believed they could do more together. Our community is a vital part of the work we do here. From giving their time volunteering in a variety of ways to donating food to supporting us financially, it takes us all working together to truly make a difference.
