Check out our 2023 Annual Report!
Our theme for 2023 was "mise en place," a culinary term for putting things in place—something we have been very focused on over the past year. As we grow to meet our community's needs, it is important that our foundation is solid and that processes and procedures are in place so that we may grow with intention and remain true to our mission.
We would love for you to check it out and see how your support has helped us feed the need here in Dayton.
