🥖🌟Bread & Light Community Meal is back for year two!

We’re excited to once again gather our Wahpeton, Breckenridge, and surrounding communities around the table for a family-friendly, pay-what-you-can meal.

Bread & Light is about more than just a meal. It’s a place to find connection, community, an answer you’ve been looking for, or simply a friend.

📅 Wednesday, October 21
⏰ 4:30–7:00 PM
📍 Hughes Shelter, Chahinkapa Park — 820 RJ Hughes Dr., Wahpeton
🍽️ Meal prepared by the NDSCS Chef’s Club ❤
💛 All proceeds benefit the Richland/Wilkin Food Pantry
🥡 Free boxed lunches will also be available to take home for families, since some kids will be out of school October 22 & 23.

Come as you are. Pay what you can. Bring a friend.

Please share this post and help us spread the word! We can’t do this without the support of our community. 🥖🌟

Volunteers are truly the heart of our organization! ❤️ We could not function without the contributions they make to our organization every day.
The Richland Wilkin Emergency Food Panty Board of Directors hosted a volunteer appreciation earlier this week. We know many volunteers were not able to attend, but we want all volunteers to know how much they are appreciated! Thanks for helping us carry out our mission and making our community a better place! (Included in the photo are volunteers, board members & our coordinator, Sharon.)
