A community that ensures its members have access to nourishing food is sowing the seeds of resilience and empowerment. It's about helping to fostering a society where compassion and solidarity prevail over indifference. By championing initiatives that support our local pantries, we don't just fill stomachs; we fortify the foundation of a compassionate and interconnected community, where the wellbeing of one is acknowledged as the concern of all.

The Soup Jar Initiative
What is a soup jar?
A soup jar is a nutritious and convenient meal option. These jars combines a medley of vibrant, dried ingredients with flavor and nutrition. Simply mix the contents of the jar in boiling water and the ingredients come to life, infusing the broth with flavors. This nourishing soup jar is designed for those who seek a nutritious and delicious meal.
Our Current Soups:
Italian Tortellini
Morrocan Lentil
How do we make them?
Our soup jars are assembled by volunteers dedicated to making sure each jar is filled with flavorful, wholesome ingredients. Each jar includes ingredient labels with cooking directions in multiple languages
How are they distributed?
After being carefully sealed, labeled, and packaged by our volunteers, the soup jars are shared with families and individuals through our community partners:
Sudbury Community Pantry
Project Soup- Somerville
Father Bill's MainSpring
Womens Lunch Place
Woburn Food Pantry
