Following her husband's untimely death, Margaret Trost visited Haiti to heal her broken heart through service. Struggling to make sense of the extreme poverty and touched by the warmth and resilience of those she met, she partnered with a local community and together they developed a program that now serves thousands of meals a week to those in need. On That Day, Everybody Ate is an autobiography of her remarkable journey.

- from the Foreword by Dr. Paul Farmer, cofounder of Partners In Health
"Margaret Trost shares an unflinching, compassionate account of her work in Haiti. The beauty and resilience of Haiti's people shine against the landscape of poverty, hunger, and political instability they face daily. Her journey demonstrates the power of hope, faith, and determination."
- Rev. Cecil Williams, Glide Memorial Church, San Francisco
"This book just swept me up and captured my heart."
- Robin Woodland, Seva Foundation
"This is an important book about the fight for the right to food."
-Loune Viaud, Partners in Health, Haiti, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award Recipient
