At Bread for the Journey Omaha, we believe that small grants can spark big changes. We help build vibrant communities, one micro-grant at a time, with a simple process that cuts through the red tape. Our board members seek out passionate, vision-driven individuals and organizations—people who see what’s needed in their community and have the heart to make it happen.
Our approach is rooted in trust. We trust our donors to give generously and wisely, and we trust our grantees to understand what their community needs most. Each grant we award is built on three key pillars:
- **Passion** – A deep commitment to making a difference
- **Vision** – A clear path forward to achieve their goal
- **Faith** – A trust in their mission and in the purpose driving them
This Giving Tuesday, we need your help to support these local changemakers. Every donation helps us fund the dreams that fuel community growth. With grants ranging from $500 to $3,000, we give promising ideas the start they need.
