Join Bay Bridge in making sandwiches for Just One More Ministry, in Glendale. JOMM rescues excess food from area restaurants, food suppliers and caterers and repackages it for shelters, food pantries and community members in need. Right now, JOMM needs bagged sandwiches as these lunches are easy to distribute with minimal contact.
Due to the overwhelmingly positive response from our MLK Sandwich Blitz, Bay Bridge would like to offer this as a monthly service opportunity. Help Bay Bridge and JOMM food bank by making sandwiches for those experiencing food insecurities. So many adults and children are in need of food now more than ever! JOMM distributes sandwiches as a low barrier way for people to access food – no questions asked. JOMM has seen dramatic increases in demand over the last year, so your contributions will serve an immediate need. A few guidelines:
White bread (preferred), ham or turkey, and cheese (cheddar, American, provolone). No condiments(mayo/mustard) to prevent sandwiches from becoming soggy.
Individually package sandwiches in a plastic bag or wrap in waxed paper sealed with tape. PLEASE DATE AND LABEL EACH SANDWICH with what type it is. Sandwiches can be make ahead of time and frozen. Two loaves of bread makes approximately 20 sandwiches.
Please thoroughly clean all surfaces, wash hands, pull back hair, and preferably wear a cap prior to food preparation. Please defer your participation if anyone in your household is not feeling well.
There will be a little white truck with a Bay Bridge sign on it parked at School House Park across from the Whitefish Bay Public Library for drop off the first WEDNESDAY OF EVERY MONTH from 9-10am. Please follow COVID safe practices by wearing a mask, physically distancing and not congregating, and staying home if you are not feeling well. Our goal is to donate 1,000 sandwiches every month to JOMM. We believe our community can achieve this with your help!
Please review the available slots here to sign up. Thank you!
