Hot Bread Kitchen is collaborating with Start Small Think Big to feed healthcare professionals and support small businesses through one simple act of care.
With generous support from a New York City family foundation, we have expanded our emergency relief fund to support participants of our small business programs as they prepare meals daily for the heroes in our hospitals.
