Join us for the 3rd Annual Chili Cook-Off on Sunday, March 29, from 3–6 PM at Front Street Park—an afternoon of great food, music, and community fun for a great cause.

This event began as a celebration of Daily Bread’s growth from its humble beginnings in 1989, when just 14 bowls of chili were served on our very first day. This year is especially meaningful as we celebrate the merger of Daily Bread and South Brevard Sharing Center to become Providence Connects—one organization with twice the impact.

Chili teams will compete for bragging rights and cash prizes, while attendees enjoy chili sampling, other delicious eats, a bar for adults, live music, and activities the whole family can enjoy.

All proceeds support Providence Connects’ mission to walk alongside our neighbors as they move from surviving to thriving, by providing food, housing, and trusted support.

Come hungry, bring your friends, and help us turn a bowl of chili into lasting change. Tickets and sponsorships for purchase at providenceconnects.org/chili. Children under 18 are free with an attending adult.
