Our Daily Needs

The Seven Loaves Soup Kitchen accepts monetary gifts to assist with the utilities, insurance and maintenance as well as for the purchase of food and supplies.

We accept prepared and non-perishable food items.  In addition to fresh produce, including potatoes and salad makings, we use canned vegetables, canned fruit, and juices. Bulk quantities of professionally packaged meat are also needed.

Kitchen supplies include paper towels, cleaning supplies, disposable steam table pans, and extra-large garbage bags.

Volunteers keep the soup kitchen open! Our volunteers range in age from early teens to nonagenarians.  Church and civic groups, families, and individuals volunteer over 130 hours a week (an average of 6 volunteers a day are needed).
