Bread for the City (“BFC”) completed a $26M campaign to build a new, 27,650 square foot comprehensive service center at 1700 Good Hope Road SE. BFC’s new Southeast Center will serve 20,000 clients through 75,000 visits. The new facility will bring BFC’s primary medical, dental and vision care services east of the Anacostia River for the first time in the organization’s history.

The building will include a Jobs Center to allow for expansion of BFC’s successful Pre-Employment Program, install a community fitness center with locker rooms and showers, and create space to grow all other existing programs: food and clothing distribution, comprehensive social services, legal advice and representation, and community organizing and advocacy.
