Onsite Food Prep and Distribution (Sat & Sun) - (730am-1230pm)

Our mission is simple: To feed a hot and nutritional meal to the homeless, the unemployed, the working poor, the mentally challenged, the physically challenged, senior citizens, and most importantly – the children.

The Soup Kitchen provides 250 meals per day, 7 days a week, and most days of the year including weekends! We make our meals fresh daily, consisting of soup, vegetable and fruit salads, hearty and filling side dishes, bread, dessert, and water. Along with this meal, our guests also get to choose from a wide variety of donations from our partners, such as Trader Joe's, Wal-Mart, The National Charity League, and community members like you who want to support our mission!

To get a better idea of our organization and familiarize yourself with our work, PLEASE ENJOY THIS BRIEF VIDEO: Welcome to Someone Cares Soup Kitchen! We look forward to meeting and serving alongside you soon!
