Food Truck – A Beacon of Hope

BREAD FOR ALL

We strive to accomplish a Simple and Yet Powerful Mission; Give food – Bring Smiles.
Welcome to Bread for All, a non-profit organization committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals across the globe. We believe that holding hands with each other and having access to both medicine and food is a basic human right, and we are launching this GoFundMe campaign to support for our mission. Together, we can create a healthier and more nourished society for all.

About Our Campaign

At Bread For ALL, our mission is to eradicate hunger, ensuring that every individual can enjoy a fulfilling meal before bedtime. Welcome to our new project – the Free Food Truck Initiative: Give Food, Bring Smiles. We’re thrilled to introduce a dedicated effort to provide free, nutritious meals to those who need it the most.

The Hunger Crisis in California

Did you know that in California, 4.1 million people are facing hunger, including 1.2 million children? This heartbreaking reality fuels our determination to make a difference. We’ve embarked on a mission to confront food insecurity head-on and bring relief to the most vulnerable members of our community.

Our Food Truck - A Beacon of Hope

What Sets Us Apart?

Free Nutritious Meals

More than just food, our truck carries hope. We serve wholesome, nutritious meals prepared with care to meet the diverse needs of our community.

Mobile Outreach

We take our services directly to neighborhoods where the need is greatest. Being mobile allows us to adapt to changing circumstances and reach those who may be unable to access traditional food resources.

Community Engagement

This campaign is more than a food truck initiative; it's a community initiative. We actively collaborate with local organizations, volunteers, and businesses, fostering a joint effort against hunger.

Our Plan - Phase One

In our initial phase, our goal is to serve 100 meals per day. To kick start this initiative, we need to raise $75,000. We’ve launched a campaign on the crowdfunding platform GoFundMe to make this dream a reality.

Invest in a Food Truck - $50,000

Your contributions will help us acquire a food truck, a key step to bring nutritious meals directly to those who need them.

Permits, Licenses, Parking, and Insurance - $7,000

Ensuring legal compliance is vital. Budget for ongoing costs, including business registration, vehicle registration, foodservice permits, fire safety permits, food truck licenses, and parking/storage fees. Insurance covering basic liability is essential.

Food, Kitchen, and Associated Supplies Costs - $8,000

Factor in food inventory costs based on market research. Consider food preparation and storage costs, including the use of a commissary kitchen. Acquire small ware, serve ware, and other supplies before opening day.

Software and Other Technological Investments - $2,000

Invest in accounting software, an app with ordering capabilities, a mobile phone, Wi-Fi network access.

Operating Costs: $8,000 per month

Running a food truck involves essential operating costs, encompassing both labor and materials needed to prepare meals for 100 people five days a week. Your valuable support plays a crucial role in covering these operating costs, empowering our team to create a substantial and positive impact in the community.
 
To meet our operational expenses, we strategically deploy the food truck in commercial areas to generate funds. These funds, in turn, contribute to maintaining a self-sufficient system that not only covers our operational costs but also enables us to provide free meals to those in need. Your continuous support is instrumental in sustaining and expanding our operations, allowing us to extend our reach beyond the bay area and bring nourishment and hope to more communities.
