Bread of Life began in 1980 and is the faith-based effort
of 35 churches, synagogues, schools and civic groups. In 2007, Bread of
Life
served about 285,000 meals. The food pantry provided needed food to
hundreds of
local families, seniors, disabled, homeless and unemployed
people. Due to
decreases in foundation and government sponsorship, we depend more than
ever on
individual support. The Walk for Bread is Bread of Life's single
largest
fundraiser. Please come meet your neighbors, enjoy the day and support
Bread of
Life! Bread
