Los Angeles Rams Team Up at Bread & Roses Café
Los Angeles Rams volunteers joined St. Joseph Center at Bread & Roses Café to help prepare food and spend time with guests, supporting a welcoming space where meals, community, and connections to services come together.
Los Angeles Rams volunteers brought helping hands and community spirit to St. Joseph Center’s Bread & Roses Café on Thursday, October 29.
More than 18 Rams volunteers helped prepare food under the direction of Chef James Cunningham, while St. Joseph Center staff and volunteers served guests made-to-order hotcakes with hash browns, warm syrup, and hot coffee. The Rams also prepared and shared cakes, adding something sweet to the day.
For many guests, Bread & Roses Café offers more than a meal. It is a welcoming place to build trust, find support, and connect with services that can help them move toward stability, including a path to permanent housing.
One Rams volunteer, Britt, shared that she wanted to give back to the community and pass along the blessings she receives to others. That spirit of generosity helped make the visit a meaningful day of connection for volunteers and guests alike.
Thank you to the Los Angeles Rams and everyone who helps make Bread & Roses Café feel like home.
