God has used Five Loaves to impact lives in the Hampton Roads community. Five Loaves has been a part of Hope from the early days, giving the gift of groceries and now also a weekly hot meal to many families in need. Five Loaves provides a loving, accepting environment for the hungry - whatever their circumstance. Five Loaves can be more than just "giving a hungry man some food to eat." "Regulars" become friends, and volunteers share in excitement as they see circumstances improve and lives transformed. Investing in our community and caring for those in need without pretense is the bedrock of Five Loaves' mission.
