About BREAD OF LIFE

Location:

54 Eastern Ave., MALDEN, MA 02148, US

Mission Statement

Bread of Life’s mission is to feed the body and to nurture the soul. We strive to feed the hungry, the homeless, the needy and the isolated; to offer spiritual nurture, support and hospitality; to promote greater peace and justice by addressing broader issues of hunger, poverty, and need; and to conduct our work in a spirit of respect and nonviolence.

Description

Bread of Life is a nonprofit, nondenominational, faith-based food security organization based in Malden, MA that provides over 1.5 million pounds of free food a year for economically struggling and disadvantaged families, individuals, youth and senior citizens in the North metro Boston area.

Bread of Life utilizes hundreds of volunteers and dozens of partner organizations to distribute food through our primary programs: food pantries; prepared and congregate meals; grocery delivery to senior citizens; nutrition backpack distribution to at-risk Everett public school youth; food delivery to homeless individuals and families in shelter; and Food Access project to overcome barriers to accessing nutritious food encountered by lower-income communities with respect to race, ethnicity, language, culture, religion, age, gender and other factors.
