Summary

Jessamyn Rodriguez of Hot Bread Kitchen and Renée Beaumont of Radical Mindset join host Kerry Diamond to talk about their inspiring partnership for Immigrant Heritage Month. Together, these two enterprising Canadians are working to raise funds for the Hot Bread Kitchen Bakers in Training program, which helps prepare women facing economic insecurity for careers in the food world. Through the end of June, donations of $100 or more to HBK will be matched by RadicalMindset.org and donors will receive an “I Am an Immigrant” t-shirt (in English or Spanish) as acknowledgment of their gift. Most members of the Bombe Squad know how much we love Hot Bread Kitchen and support its mission, so we hope you'll help out.
