House of Bread has been providing job skill training and mentoring to under-resourced women in the Roanoke Valley for nine years with tremendous support from the members of RCPC. Through budgeted benevolent giving, opportunities for generosity and Christmas alternative giving, RCPC donations funded about 10% of House of Bread's 2025 operating budget. While the bulk of funding comes from individual donations, grants and bread sales, this faithful support from RCPC provides much needed operating funds, the line items that are unglamorous on a grant application but critical to sustaining House of Bread's work in the community. In 2026 House of Bread is partnering with Roanoke's housing authority, the Grove on Patterson and the PCC to provide job skill training to vulnerable groups of women in our community and we couldn't do this work without your support!
