Sometimes, a bridge to change starts with a simple sandwich. 🥪✨
At Hope Dealers BTC, we are an all-volunteer organization. This means every single meal provided to our neighbors in Rochester is made possible by people like YOU. We are looking for compassionate individuals to help prepare lunches for our street outreach.
By giving just a few hours of your time, you are doing more than making a meal—you are dealing hope and offering dignity to those facing substance use disorder, mental health challenges, or poverty. We provide the supplies; you provide the heart! ❤️

Ready to make an impact in the 585? 👉 Sign up via Idealist here: https://ideali.st/gZTPqF
