DescriptionBay Area Regional Exchange And Development encourages proactive solutions to community needs left unmet by the global economy. BREAD provides education and tools to promote ecologically sustainable, community-based economics. As a grassroots organization, BREAD promotes self-reliance and builds connections for a healthy community. Our primary programs are a local currency system, BREAD Hours, and community education. Local currency allows us to de-link from the global economy, focus resources into community building, and support basic needs while promoting fair, ethical trade. The education program aims to increase awareness and understanding of global and local economics, and provide tools for social change.
