Today s Daily Bread celebrates second summer with ribbon cutting
From Staff Reports
Today’s Daily Bread, a Christian-based non-profit organization born last year, held a ribbon-cutting ceremony recently to commemorate the start of its second summer.
Business founder Candace Nichols had a calling to “fill the stomachs and hearts” of students 18 and younger who otherwise might go hungry during the summer, she said.
More than 60 percent of Gaston County students qualify for free or reduced-price meals at school, but many lack access to meals during summer breaks, Nichols said.
Nichols, formerly a human resources executive, felt led to help meet this need and created Today’s Daily Bread, a mobile meal delivery service.
