Soup Cafe, Bismarck ND
Feeding the Body, the Mind & the Soul
in Bismarck-Mandan
In March of 2015 after celebrating six successful years of serving the hungry in our community we made the decision to search for a second location for the Soup Cafe. At the time we were bursting at the seams serving anywhere from 100 to 200+ people a day six days per week. The homeless shelter was 2 1/2 miles away which meant that for the homeless to get a hot meal they would have to walk 5 miles round trip. So we started a campaign to raise money to open a second location for the Soup Cafe, one where we would be closer to the homeless shelter. Just as we started this project our landlord dropped the bombshell that he was terminating our lease on June 1st. So at the end of May 2015, we closed our doors and Bismarck has been without a soup kitchen since our closure.

We are sure you can image how many potatoes and onions we go through each week for soup. Those that volunteer who have helped peel could probably tell some great stories.Today we were blessed with 1200 pounds of potatoes from Haycreek 4-H. Thank you for your generous hearts and hard work.If you have extra potatoes, and if God touches your heart to share, we would be happy to take them.

Roger and Larry have been with Aid, Inc for a while. They pick up desserts and breads and share some of it with the Soup Cafe. You may have heard that Aid will be closing in the near future after 43 years. We are going to miss these cheerful men. Our guests are going to miss the goodies they share.Thank you, Roger and Larry. God bless your future endeavors. Stop by for some soup and say hello.
