May, 1980: A group from a variety of faiths and backgrounds begins to talk about a program that was operating successfully in other parts of the United States. After learning about the food banking concept, the group enthusiastically decides to proceed, obtaining trucks, walk-in freezers, forklifts, scales, telephones, and office equipment, and warehouse space, which is donated by Dade County.
February 17, 1981: Daily Bread Food Bank is incorporated as a Florida nonprofit organization
1982: Daily Bread Food Bank begins distributing food. By the middle of the year Daily Bread is distributing 36,000 pounds of food a month.
1985: Daily Bread Food Bank opens a part-time distribution program for Broward County.
Mid-1985: Daily Bread Food Bank is distributing over 500,000 pounds of food per month through 260 social service agencies. This ten-fold increase puts tremendous pressure on Daily Bread Food Bank and its 10,000 square foot facility near the Miami Produce Market to effectively obtain and distribute food. The Board of Directors begins a capital campaign to obtain a larger warehouse.
