From Bread to Bridges - Creating Connections Through Faith and Food


Listen Later

Food is more than nourishment—it's a basic right, a cultural expression, and a spiritual connector. Yet here in Nebraska, more than 300,000 people, including 92,000 children, experience food insecurity each year. In this episode, we sit down with Catholic Charities Executive Director Denise Bartels and Tri-Faith Initiative Operations Manager Abdul Mackie to explore how their partnership with the Team Up Project brought together diverse communities of faith to address hunger in meaningful, collaborative ways. Denise and Abdul recap the Bread to Bridges event and describe the long-term impact their partnership can have in addressing food insecurity in Omaha. This conversation is a reminder that solving hunger requires dignity, respect, and collaboration—and that lasting change happens when we come together. Learn more or get involved: ccomaha.org
