“We are thankful for every volunteer and supporter that contributes their time and energy to the soup kitchen. It makes a difference in the lives of so many to create a warm and welcoming space for those in need,” said Beckie Snyder, Administrative Assistant for VPSA.
This was the third Saturday of the year that the SLC has sponsored the Soup Kitchen, with more to come. The Soup Kitchen is open from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. every Saturday for service.
