Editor,
The Bread Basket Board would like to thank the over 225 individuals, families, businesses and foundations that helped support the Bread Basket in 2020.
Strife can bring out the best or worst in people, and in this area of Western Montana, people really came through for the hungry, food challenged people of Ronan, Pablo and Charlo.
We worked closely with West Shore Food Bank, Polson Loaves and Fishes and St. Ignatius Food Bank to make sure the food never ran out. Our client numbers have been down for 2020 with 407 families and 2,029 visits. We have found other ways to share our bounty serving at least 10 different groups with extra food. The Town Pump, Dennis & Phyllis Washington Foundation, Hubbard’s Yellowstone Adventures, Lower Flathead Foundation, Headwater Foundation, Gianforte Family Foundation and The Providence Health and Services were huge contributors to the Bread Basket.
Everything makes a difference to what we are able to give, including small donations of $2, the homegrown produce from area gardeners and people who buy extra at the store to donate. A special thanks to all our local churches who are consistent givers during the year.
We are hoping that, as this pandemic subsides, more people will come for food. We follow protocol to keep everyone safe. Our 60 volunteers and the Bread Basket Board wish to share our humble thanks with you all. Please call 406-676- 3261 or 406-676-Help for more information.
Patti Mocabee, chairman
