POWER SOUPS AND MEALS FOR THE HOMELESS

One of the kitchen’s most important commitments is to cook Power Soups and Power Meals for the homeless. The cooks prepare tasty and nutrient-dense meals which are provided at a subsidized price to local shelters. This allows shelters without the equipment or capacity to serve full meals to do so.

Where drop-ins or shelters may only been able to serve coffee and donuts before, they can now serve a hearty chicken soup or pasta salad, homemade and packed with fruit and vegetables, along with a whole grain bread or fresh fruit.

For youth shelters and transitional housing facilities, a nutrition and cooking workshop component is also available. FoodShare staff and/or youth peer leaders from Focus on Food lead the workshops.
