According to recent literature, the Grand Opening of our new Bread of Life building was a triumph, “capping 20 years of faith, labor, perseverance and funding on the part of many, many people in the community! Thank YOU to all who helped make the Grand Opening a success!
“Our 54 Eastern Ave. (Malden) project brings all Bread of Life programs under one roof – food pantries, evening meals, backpacks, motel shelter food provision, grocery delivery and food access – along with our offices and a multi-purpose hall for expanded programs. The project also provides 14 affordable studio apartments owned and operated by Metro North Housing Corp (MNHC) to provide permanent housing for very low-income formerly homeless individuals.
“Let’s continue Moving Forward to a Brighter Future by walking together on October 6th. Join us for our annual fundraising event and help support our programs during this exciting new time for Bread of Life!”
