Kudos: Bread and Broth thanks Kirkwood Mountain Resort

Hosting their bi-monthly Bread & Broth Adopt A Day of Nourishment, Kirkwood Mountain Resort sent a great crew from their Mountain Operations team to help B&B volunteers at the Monday Meal on March 13th. The Kirkwood team led by Tom Fortune included Kelly Keith, Reid and Mattie Devine, and Mike Niccoli and his daughter Iris. Thanks to Vail EpicPromise grant funding, Kirkwood hosts six Adopt A Days a year providing nutritious and filling meals to many hungry members of our community.

B&B provides two meals every week. Second Serving on Fridays at the LT Community Presbyterian Church which serves soup and a simple entrée and a full course dinner at B&B’s Monday Meal held at St. Theresa Church Grace Hall. The Monday meals are funded by the Adopt A Day program which requires a $250 donation and encourages the AAD sponsor to send a crew of up to 5 folks to help the B&B volunteers and gain an insight to the service to the community that their sponsorship provides.

After spending her time packing food “giveaway” bags and serving 96 meals, first time Kirkwood volunteer Mattie Devine shared her thoughts on her time volunteering at a B&B dinner. “As a member of the community, serving at the B&B dinner was not only humbling, but a great learning experience. Bread & Broth, and the great people who volunteer and work here, are more important than ever with such a long and tough winter her in Tahoe.” B&B would like acknowledge that our “work” of helping feed the needy is made possible by the generosity of both time and funds provided by Kirkwood and their compassionate team members.
