How it Works

You're worried about what happens when supply chains break. When grocery stores run low. When the next disaster hits and your family can't get food or clean water.

And you should be—because right here in Oregon, more than 530,000 people (1 in 7 Oregonians) are already food insecure.

That's 1 in 6 Oregon kids who don't know where their next meal is coming from.

Food bank visits jumped 51% in just two years, hitting a record 2.9 million visits last year.

You want to be prepared, but you don't know where to start—and you know stockpiling canned goods isn't a real solution.

The Daily Bread Project equips you and your neighbors with the practical skills and community connections to feed yourselves and ensure access to clean water—permanently. We teach families how to start community gardens that produce real food. How to filter and secure water sources. How to build neighborhood networks that share resources and catch each other when times get hard. This isn't about surviving alone in a bunker.

It's about building communities strong enough that when crisis comes—and it will—no one goes hungry. No one goes without water. And no one gets left behind.
