My Nonprofit Reviews

I volunteer with Bread of Life coordinating the food pantry Grab 'n' Go distribution. This dynamic organization strategically gets food to people in many different ways, increasing people's access to food via a food pantry, church meals, snacks for school kids, home delivery, and more. The staff are enthusiastic and welcoming and guide international and very diverse teams of volunteers to collaborate to fulfill its mission. It's wonderfully satisfying to be able to help people together with such an outstanding team.

I went to Bread & Roses after the gas explosions in 2018 to help sort the donations of clothing, toiletries, and household goods they had collected on behalf of the community. Because the staff and volunteers were so welcoming and there was so much to be done, I decided immediately to volunteer two days a week. Getting to know and help the people who turn to Bread & Roses for food, health, and other daily needs was incredibly rewarding. It has been deeply satisfying to support Bread & Roses and to know they will continue their 40+ year tradition of providing care and comfort for those most in need.
