Breaking Bread, Breaking Barriers

Description
Breaking Bread, Breaking Barriers (BBBB) is the Partnership's program to engage the community by volunteering to help cook and serve meals as well as to provide financial support for our organization. Interested parties can sponsor a meal for our participants while volunteering in our kitchen.

The Broward Partnership provides thousands of meals a year. Every day, program participants are served breakfast, lunch and dinner. Groups from corporations, civic and professional associations, high-schools, universities and the faith-based community have the opportunity to sponsor, cook and serve a meal, which feeds 230 men, women and children experiencing homelessness on our campus.

Make Your Team Building Meaningful!

Under the guidance of Broward Partnership's Food Service staff, your group works together to cook the meal in our kitchen, serve it in our dining room, and then you may relax and enjoy a meal with our program participants.

Learn How To Make A Difference!

Breaking Bread, Breaking Barriers is a true behind-the-scenes look at the services the Partnership provides. Your group will learn who those experiencing homelessness are in Broward County, and how you can help break the cycle of homelessness.

Give Back To Your Community!

When members of our community break bread with our participants, we begin to break barriers in the fight against homelessness.

Have Fun!

Experience the personal satisfaction of knowing you made a difference - it will be an experience you will always remember.

For those experiencing homelessness, the simple act of finding a meal can be insurmountable. For many families and individuals, a communal meal serves as a source of healing and connecting with others. The Broward Partnership Food Service Program meets these needs by providing three nutritionally well-balanced meals a day for program participants, evening snacks for children, bag lunches/dinners for residents who are employed and off-site at meal time, and the provision of special dietary plans for the infirmed and elderly.
