WE NEED YOU!

The summer transition has our volunteer slots looking really lonely. Can you serve a shift with us this summer? We have all kinds of different opportunities!

Our service doesn’t work without volunteers. If you’ve ever considered volunteering at Our Daily Bread, now is the time!

Kids age 6-16 are welcome to come help out with an adult!

We can even schedule a quick tour for you before you come volunteer the first time if you’d like. We know that unknown things can be a little intimidating.

Thank you to our community for always stepping up when we need you!

Hello everyone!
We have some teens in shelter, and need a little bit of help from our community. We need supplies geared toward teens!
Specifically, we need hygiene items and clothing for all genders.
Some examples of things we could use are below.
• Socks
• Shoes
• Underwear
• Deodorant
• Menstrual products
• Self-care items
• Makeup
We are so immensely grateful for everyone who is able to assist us with these matters. Our community helps us to keep these individuals safe and cared for during their time with us. 🦋

So grateful to Stillwater Public Schools for providing meals during the summer. See the schedule below.

The Caring for Kids Community Conversation brought together partners from across Payne County to talk about how we can better support children and families in our community.

Through small group discussions and shared ideas, participants explored challenges, identified community strengths, and imagined what success could look like over the next 12 months.

Several themes rose to the top:
• Making it easier for families to find and navigate resources
• Increasing awareness of services already available
• Expanding childcare and after-school opportunities
• Strengthening parent support networks
• Improving transportation access to services and programs

What stood out most was the strong commitment from organizations and community members to work together to strengthen support for families.

We’re grateful to everyone who took part in the conversation and shared their insights. These ideas will help guide future collaboration as we continue building a community where every child and family can thrive.

Stay tuned as we share more about next steps and ways to stay involved!

I’ve learned something working alongside The Salvation Army, hope often starts with something very simple.

A warm meal.
Help keeping a bill current.
Diapers for a baby when a family is struggling.

Small things can mean everything when someone is having a hard time.

This Friday is $5 Friday, and every $5 stays right here helping people in our community.

If you’re able, consider sharing a little hope today. ❤️
