Franciscan Charities Kitchen is the centerpiece of our outreach with a bustling soup kitchen  open five days a week, providing hot, home-cooked, nutritious meals planned and made by a professional chef. Our volunteers, many of whom have built relationships with our clients over the years, help with preparation and service of those meals. They also pack and distribute bags filled with food and personal hygiene items that clients can take home. Each year we provide over 100,000 meals to those in need with the help of over 300 volunteers.
