Hey friends, Rebekah here from 5 Loaves.

I wanted to take a minute to brag on a very special volunteer.

Rodrick started volunteering the same summer I started working at 5 Loaves. Back then, he was a very shy young man, but even then, his work ethic stood out. Whatever needed to be done, Rodrick was there. He never complained and was always willing to help. Almost every weekday that summer, his dad would drop him off early and pick him up later in the day.

The next summer, he came back a little less quiet, a little more confident, and an even harder worker. By the following year, he practically could have run the warehouse himself. This summer has been no different—except now he can drive himself here.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of watching Rodrick grow into a leader. I've also had the opportunity to get to know him and admire the values and work ethic his parents instilled in him. So when we had the chance to award a scholarship to a deserving teen this spring, I knew Rodrick was the perfect choice.

Yesterday, I was out in the warehouse when Rodrick walked up to me with the biggest grin on his face and said, "Miss Rebekah, I have to tell you something... I got a full ride to college, and I leave Sunday."

My heart was overflowing with joy.

At 5 Loaves, we often talk about planting seeds and investing in the next generation. Yesterday, I got to see one of those seeds bloom. While I'm sad to see him go, I couldn't be more excited for what lies ahead.

Rodrick, thank you for the thousands of hours you've given to serving others. Thank you for leading by example. Thank you for showing up day after day with a servant's heart.

We are so proud of you and can't wait to see what God has planned for your future. I have no doubt you're going to do amazing things.

Good luck, Rodrick. Your 5 Loaves family is cheering you on every step of the way. ❤️

Meet "Ben."

Ben is an elementary-aged boy who walked over from the recreation center next door to the Smith Public Library this week. He came into our Student Summer Feeding Program room, smiled at our volunteers, and quietly asked, "Is this where I can get food if I don't have any food at my house?"

Of course, the answer was yes.

The truth is, if you had seen Ben that day, you never would have guessed he was facing food insecurity. He was polite. He smiled. He looked like any other child enjoying summer break.

That's the thing about hunger. It doesn't always look the way people expect.

Sometimes food insecurity is the child asking for a bag of chips from the concession stand because they haven't eaten since yesterday. Sometimes it's a little boy brave enough to admit there isn't food at home.

This summer, when we learned that several local school districts would not be offering summer meal programs, 5 Loaves Ministries and our community partners stepped in to help fill the gap.

Every Monday through August 3rd, children can receive a week's worth of lunches and dinners at the Smith Public Library in Wylie. This past Monday alone, 113 children received food.

If you know a child who could benefit from this program, join us Mondays from 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM at the Smith Public Library. Children must be present to receive meals.

Because every child deserves a full stomach, a carefree summer, and the chance to just be a kid.

🎉 What an incredible week at Healthy Kids, Healthy Choices! 🎉

Last week, we welcomed our first group of teens for Session 1 of Healthy Kids, Healthy Choices, and we couldn't be more proud of them!

Throughout the week, these amazing young people learned practical life skills including healthy eating, physical activity, mental health, relationships, financial responsibility, digital reputation, communication skills, and other tools to help them build bright futures. Most importantly, they showed up each day ready to learn, grow, and invest in themselves.

A huge THANK YOU to the community members, speakers, volunteers, and partners who shared their time, knowledge, and experience with our teens. Programs like this are only possible because of people who are willing to pour into the next generation.

We also want to recognize our graduates from Session 1! 👏 Thank you for your commitment and participation throughout the week. We are excited to see how you use what you've learned.

Special thanks to Chick-fil-A, Raising Cane's, and Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux for providing gift certificates that we were able to award to students who completed the entire week of classes. Your generosity helped make graduation day even more special!

📢 Good news! We still have a few spots available in our remaining three summer sessions. If you know a teen ages 13-17 who could benefit from learning valuable life skills, leadership, healthy habits, and career readiness, we would love to have them join us.

Together, we're helping build healthy kids, healthy choices, and brighter futures. Swipe through to see some highlights from Session 1!

FREE SUMMER MEALS FOR CHILDREN!

5 Loaves Ministries, in collaboration with local nonprofit partners, is helping fill the gap for children who may not have access to summer meal sites this year.

📅 Mondays, June 15 – August 3
📍 Smith Public Library
⏰ 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM (or while supplies last)

Children ages 3-17 will receive a week's worth of lunches and dinners to take home.

No registration is required. Meals are available while supplies last.

We know summer can be a challenging time for families when school meals are unavailable. Our goal is simple: help ensure children in our community have access to nutritious food all summer long.

Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with friends, neighbors, schools, churches, and community groups.

Together, we can make sure no child goes hungry this summer.

Uniting for a Brighter Tomorrow!

We recently had the privilege of meeting Jacob's Reward Farm in Parker, a remarkable non-profit organization that nurtures chickens and cultivates produce to generously donate to local food pantries. This week, we received a call asking if we'd like to accept a donation of freshly processed chickens to share with our clients. Embracing the spirit of collaboration, we visited the farm on Wednesday night, took a tour, and left with nearly 200 pounds of chicken to distribute! What an incredible blessing! We're deeply grateful for a community that embodies the power of unity, working together for the greater good of humanity 🩷

🧀💛 What a "mac-nificent" community we live in! 💛🧀

A huge THANK YOU to the Richardson Texas Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for hosting an incredibly successful Mac & Cheese Drive for 5 Loaves Ministries!

Because of your generosity, our shelves are stocked with one of the most requested items we provide to families. Mac & cheese may seem simple, but for many parents it's an easy meal, a familiar comfort food, and one less thing to worry about when budgets are stretched thin.

We are continually amazed by the way our community partners step up to meet needs and care for their neighbors. When churches, businesses, schools, and community groups come together, incredible things happen—and local families are the ones who benefit.

Thank you for your kindness, your hard work, and your heart for serving others. We are so grateful to have partners like you helping us fight hunger right here in our community! 🙌🥣💛

When school cafeterias close for summer, many children lose access to reliable breakfast and lunch meals.
That means parents already struggling with rising grocery costs suddenly need to stretch their budgets even
further.
No child should start summer with an empty stomach.
Your cereal donations help us bridge that gap.
