ODB Receives a Sweet Donation from Domino

2,400 pounds of sugar from Domino

Thanks, Domino Sugar! After we received 20,000 tea bags last week, we really needed sugar at Our Daily Bread to make the daily batch of sweet tea for our guests. Domino, a regular donor, delivered 2,400 pounds of sugar (pictured) this week. Sweet! For our guests, the hot lunch at ODB is often their only meal of the day, so the sugar in their tea is an important source of energy and a much appreciated treat. When we run out of sugar, they truly miss it, though unsweetened tea and water is always available.

Each meal we serve is balanced and includes a protein serving, for lasting energy, vegetables (usually fresh), and carbohydrates (to help keep hungry bellies full longer). Vegetarian options are always offered. Guests are invited to take their leftovers and extra bread with them (we provide plastics bags and paper lunch bags for this purpose). Whenever donations make it possible, we also offer peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to go so that guests can have something for an evening meal or supplemental protein serving.
