Our Daily Bread Foundation is proud to celebrate Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month!

We're committed to celebrating cultural diversity as a means of fostering community. We also believe in the power of food to bring people together.

Do you have a bread recipe that's representative of your AAPI heritage? We'd love to hear from you!

Our program, Breads Around the World, invites community members to lead a baking class and share the heart and history behind their favorite breads.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, which serves as a reminder that 1 in 7 adolescents aged 10–19 globally experience mental health conditions, with anxiety and depression being most common, according to World Health Organization (WHO).

Our youth deserve support, understanding, and spaces where healing is possible. Together, we can create communities where young people feel seen, heard, and supported.

Calling students and volunteers! Join us for our next Breads Around the World baking class on Saturday, March 28 🥖🌎

Baker Oliver Casey Esparza will teach us how to make traditional conchas (Mexican pan dulce) from scratch 🇲🇽 Here's a little bit about Oliver Casey in his own words:

"I have fond memories of sitting around my grandparents table in Mexico eating this bread with coffee after a late dinner with my cousins chatting until late night hours. For Mexicans, this bread is a staple typically consumed with coffee for either breakfast or as a dessert."

Breads Around the World is more than just a baking class—it’s a celebration of unity, tradition, and connection through food, reminding us how something as simple as bread can bring people together.

This FREE class is open to youth ages 13-15, as well as volunteers (of all ages!), and will meet at First United Methodist Church in Uptown Charlotte from 9:30am-2pm.
