2019 Interfaith Soup Brigade

The homeless in Santa Rosa endure harsh times during the winter months, particularly this year due to last year’s tragic fires. Catholic Charities expanded its services at the Samuel Jones Shelter, creating extra indoor sleeping space for the homeless and put out a call to the faith-based community asking for assistance. For the 6th year in a row, Congregation Shomrei Torah's Social Action Committee has stepped up to provide soup for about 40 people each night, for eight Thursday nights through January and February 2019.

We need 3-5 volunteers each Thursday in January and February to provide soup.

Please make soup in your own home, or buy it and bring it.

Make about 5 quarts, enough to serve 10-12 people.

Chicken noodle and other wholesome soups are welcome (no matzoh balls because the soup is served in tall paper cups).

Please deliver soup to Samuel Jones Hall at 4020 Finley Avenue. The soup can be brought during the day and put in the refrigerator if you cannot come at night.

We need 1-3 volunteers to help heat and serve the soup from 5:30-8:00 PM.  Children are welcome, and tend to get a lot out of the experience.
