I founded Spread the Dough in NH in '05. We are a group youth who pick up day old bread from bakeries and deliver it to the surrounding homeless shelters. Since '05 we have saved 30,000+ baked goods ($180,000 worth) and opened chapters in CT, VA, NH, MA, VT, and soon to be PA and GA. Now, the residents of the homeless shelters at one of the NH chapters pick up the bread on their own. While feeding the hungry we simultaneously eliminate waste from business. By 2013 we hope to save 300,000 loaves and have one chapter in every state across the country. We need to hire staff, buy $1000s worth of electronics, promotional materials, and t shirts. We need national exposure and financial support from our community to Spread the Dough across the US.
