SOUPER SUNDAY IS BACK!
Kick off 2025 by making it a "Souper" Year!
You can directly help those currently experiencing homelessness in the Orlando area by collecting nonperishable food items, canned goods (especially pop-top cans) and men's clothing – particularly men's shoes, new socks & underwear, pants and jackets/sweatshirts in good condition.
Our food pantry serves an important purpose other than meeting a basic need. It draws desperate people to our campus where we do the hard work of nurturing a relationship with them, where they will hopefully open up to a case manager for us to help them get healthy, hired, and housed.
Finish your collection of food, shoes and clothing by Sunday, Feb. 9, 2025, the day of pro football's biggest game. Souper Sunday is a fun way to start off the new year while helping the less fortunate!
Get your church, your coworkers, and friends into the game against homelessness and hunger. Collect Soup, Nonperishable Food & Winter Clothing Items January 2 - February 9.
SHORT ON TIME TO SHOP?
We can do the shopping for you. We purchase food at reduced prices through partners like Second Harvest Food Bank. For every $1 received, we can purchase 2 cans of soup.
