Our 5th Annual Feed the Homeless/Hungry Holiday Breakfast Dec 7, 2023 was a Success!!

by misstakenid, posted in Uncategorized

We had a chance to go back to where we started feeding large groups, Urban Ministries of Durham for our 5th Annual Feed the Homeless and Hungry Holiday Breakfast.

We had a great time serving in the community and we were able to provide a hearty meal to 230 people that are either suffering from homelessness, food insecurity or both.

Not only did we purchase items our team also worked the industrial kitchen and prepared a delicious breakfast menu consisting of turkey sausage, turkey bacon, grits, hasbrowns, eggs, fruit, breakfast pastries, juice, coffee, water. Aside from preparing the breakfast we helped pass out lunch bags that were also donated from other organizations.

The population that we served was very thankful and expressed gratitude. As a treat, we had our resident DJ, Tobias Mayor Morrison spinning the holiday hits while they enjoyed their meal. This brought great joy to all and contributed to the wonderful experience.

We would love to thank all of those that volunteered their time and a special thanks to all of the individuals that gave monetary donations.

We would also like to thank our community sponsors for this event : Indulge Catering and WEGMANS.

It really takes a village and numerous donations to prepare a meal for over 200 people. If you would like to donate to future events for 2024 please click on our donation page!

WE will continue this event in 2024, and it will take place on December 6, 2024 in Durham, NC.

Our 2nd International Service Project: Visit w/ Huellas De Pan Cancun, Mexico September 2023

Our 2nd International Service Project! Can you believe it???

We had the amazing opportunity to return to Huellas De Pan in Cancun, Mexico for our 2nd International Service Project. We had some amazing sponsors/friends/volunteers to accompany us on this adventure. We were able to provide our friends at Huellas de Pan with some much needed supplies such as food items to help feed the 250+ children that come to their location weekly and replaced the broken large containers/totes that help them w/ pickups and deliveries of food. These supplies will help them continue to fight food insecurity for school aged children in Cancun, Mexico.

During our visit not only were we able to pick up and deliver supplies. We were able to help the children practice their English, which was a delight as they were so excited to utilize their skills. We also helped serve lunch, which let us know how much of an impact Huellas de Pan has in the community as they were able to make foods stretch for the masses and children were able to eat as much as they wanted for lunch. They asked if I would make a special meal the next time we came.

We were so thankful for this opportunity to serve! Before we left the staff already asked if we would come back next year!

(So we need to do some fundraising for the project for next year 😉 )

If you would like to donate to future projects, please let us know. We accept donations via Paypal and Check. With your help/support we can make it back to Huellas de Pan in 2024!

New Beginnings in June 2023: The Start of our new Professional Development Series

by misstakenid, posted in Uncategorized

We provide pop up community service and are mostly known for fighting hunger/food insecurity. WE have fed many people and we are now able to step into our second goal, professional development.

At the Misstakenid Gives Back Foundation we believe that helping to change the thinking pattern of an individual is another way to help someone succeed. Our new professional development workshops will help people to think outside of the box, in hopes to serve them in a different capacity.

Our first workshop series is titled “Success Looks Different For Everybody”- A fireside chat. WE are able to create a space to allow participants to think about success in a way that they never have. There will be great discussions to help retrain all of our brains to what “success really looks like”.

We were able to hold our first Fireside Chat in June of this year (2023). WE look forward to hosting this workshop across many communities. Our founder is the facilitator of the workshop and enjoys working with different people to keep this workshop moving/ evolving to help reach many people.

In April of 2023, we started a new partnership with a local family shelter in Durham, NC.

WE are happy to be working with Families Moving Forward!

We kicked off our partnership with the First Bloom Brunch on June 2, 2023. We had an amazing time with the residents. We were able to provide food, door prizes, a DJ and a great introduction for our organization to start work with continuing our work of showing people that Volunteering can be fun.

This was the spread for the residents!!

We would like to thank all of our volunteers and donors that helped make this possible and continue to support us as we serve the community.

by misstakenid, posted in Uncategorized

We were able to have our very first collaboration with a Corporate Volunteer Group from The Holt Team of New American Funding. They were a great group to work with.

Our Menu consisted of a “cookout style” meal. We made 1/4 hamburgers and hotdogs, we had salad, chips, dessert items, water, and soft drinks.

We made 100 plates and were able to give them out to the homeless/hungry population.

The Holt team also provided 75 toiletry bags to give out during lunch.
