Caesars Republic/Harrah’s HEROs (formerly known as Harrahs’/Harveys’ HEROs) stands out as one of the longest and most consistent sponsors of Bread & Broth’s Adopt A Day of Nourishment program. The Adopt A Day (AAD) sponsorship program, launched in 2011, funds and encourages participation in Bread & Broth’s Monday Meal. Since early 2012, the HEROs have demonstrated an ongoing commitment by sponsoring these meals.
Throughout the years, the AAD crew members from the HEROs group have consistently excelled. Their background in hospitality, as casino and hotel team members, enables them to handle every meal setup task with skill and enthusiasm. Their warm smiles and kindness towards dinner guests help create a welcoming and positive experience for all attendees.
The Caesars Republic/Harrah’s HEROs is the employee organization at the casinos that encourages members to support community events and projects. Their first AAD sponsorship of 2026 took place on Monday, March 16. The HEROs volunteers for this Monday Meal were Jenn Cisneros, Devon Falk, Mark McDonald, Sherry Newberger, and Darlene Winkelman. Darlene, casino operations manager, has played a key role in coordinating HEROs’ AAD sponsorships since their inaugural event in 2012. She continues to assemble a dedicated and enthusiastic crew for each sponsorship event.
The HEROs AAD team members found serving the vulnerable in the community to be inspiring.
“I loved it,” shared Jenn Cisneros. “I didn’t know we had so much need in our community.”
That evening, Bread & Broth’s Monday Meal served 117 dinners with eight dinner guests going back for second servings of the chicken, potatoes, green bean casserole, and green salad.
Experiencing his first stint as an AAD volunteer, Devon shared that “Overall, a lot more people than I expected. Happy to see there was plenty of food for everyone. Good to see a sense of community with everyone.”
Thank you to the HEROs organization and the support they receive from Caesars Republic/ Harrah’s in their efforts to be involved in the betterment of the community. Bread & Broth looks forward to their upcoming Adopt A Day of Nourishment sponsorship on May 4.
