Kudos: Bread & Broth thanks South Tahoe Association of Realtors

Bread & Broth would like to thank the South Tahoe Association of Realtors (STAR) for hosting the Monday, July 25 dinner and sending a fun and energetic group to help put on the evening meal.

“Most of us didn’t know what to expect and the B&B volunteers were very patient and explained what we needed to do,” commented Ellen Camacho, STAR president. She and her fellow STAR members Michelle Blue-Benedict, president- elect; Jaime Sauers, treasurer and Jessica Crase and Tiffany Grimes, volunteer committee co-chairs did a fine job of coming on board and helping feed the hungry folks who showed up at St. Theresa Grace Hall.

As a non-profit, all volunteer organization, B&B relies on the $250 donation and the help of the sponsor volunteer crews to hold each Monday evening meal. The sponsor volunteers work alongside the B&B volunteers and together they see to it that up to 110 dinner guests are fed and provided with bags of food to help them through the remainder of the week. For over the past 4 years, every available B&B Monday evening dinner has had an Adopt A Day sponsor thanks to the wonderful people in our Community.

Ellen described the B&B volunteers as “very giving in donating their personal time. Very friendly to the clients and they truly care.” Those comments are also a very apt description of the five STAR volunteers who worked hand in hand with the B&B volunteers. It is really important to B&B that our sponsors are involved in their dinner. “It was a rewarding experience” said Ellen and a wonderful way to see how funds donated for the dinner impact those who are in need of help.
