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 received a whole truck box full of donations of food and paper products from Edward Jones . Thank you for your generous donation! When we asked them why they did this, this was their response…“At Edward Jones, we shoulder both the privilege and the responsibility of supporting and strengthening the communities we serve — a tradition inspired by Ted and Pat Jones and their generous philanthropic spirit. One of the ways we live this commitment is through our region- where each year we collectively select a local cause to support. Coming together in this way allows us to bring our firm’s purpose to life and uphold one of our most impactful values: giving back.This year, Region 69 — which includes our network of financial advisors, branch teams, and support associates across central and western North Dakota — chose to support Heaven’s Helpers. Our region is made up of individuals who not only serve clients but are also deeply invested in the well‑being of our local communities. We believe in stepping up where we live and work, and Region 69 has a long history of doing just that.We selected Heaven’s Helpers because of the meaningful impact their programs have on individuals experiencing hunger, homelessness, or crisis. Their work brings dignity, stability, and hope to people in need — values that align closely with our own commitment to support those around us.Our donation reflects our shared commitment to building stronger, more compassionate communities. We are grateful for the important work Heaven’s Helpers does each day, and we are honored to contribute to their mission.”
