STONE SOUP KITCHEN

Then COVID hit, prompting Stone Soup to resurface and  fill the gap that was left when service providers closed their doors or reduced  access to resources.

 Every night since March 27, 2020, Stone Soup volunteers  have been helping people on the street.   
We secured a location at 308 Fitzwilliam Street in the  Old City Quarter, and collected donations and supplies from generous and caring  businesses and individuals in the Nanaimo Regional area.

 Several building  contractors donated their time and talents. And a community of volunteers worked  tirelessly to transform the empty storefront into a modern, COVID-certified  commercial kitchen.   
We are now operating our commercial kitchen on  Fitzwilliam Street 7 days a week and delivering hot food by van to six evening  locations in and around downtown Nanaimo.   

We also share the kitchen with other organizations  serving people in need.
