Bread House Week 31

Destin Harvest came back in a big way this week. They had one of their churches that receive food test positive for COVID. They could not accept any donations or give them out. Shalimar was able to take about 40 boxes of items for our pantry. We received milk and eggs, vegetables, boxes of frozen meat, breads and cakes, plus pumpkin pies! Blessings for Children also had a person visit that had a positive COVID test. They shut down and tested their volunteers (which all came back negative). Due to these circumstances, the Bread House has changed it’s policy. We will keep everyone out of the Bread House except workers. We started passing food out through the window in the door for additional safety!
As always, thanks to everyone who continues to support the Bread House! It is truly appreciated for those in need!
