Soup Sisters has become a Soup Bank, producing soup specifically and intentionally for agencies in need, and continues to provide our message of 'we care' to Canadians.

CANADA'S FIRST SOUP BANK
Delivering Hugs in a Bowl

The pandemic has presented many new challenges in food insecurity and nutrition inequity. Consequently, we have changed from a community soup-making event driven organization to operating a highly economical Soup Bank that delivers thousands of pounds of soup

to agencies nationwide. 

We're making a profound and tangible difference, and with your support the impact can be monumental.

Everything starts with proper nourishment.

We changed our charitable model in March 2020 and began producing soup large scale at a food safe commercial production facility in Edmonton. Our Soup Bank has since delivered over 200,000 lbs of fresh soup to more than 40 agencies nationwide.

 

Our recipes are specifically developed with the support of food scientists and Chef Michael Allemeier CMC, one of three Certified Master Chefs in Canada. Soup is flash frozen and delivered in-kind by VersaCold Logistics Services, (Canada’s largest refrigerated trucking company) and ready to heat and serve.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SINCE COVID BEGAN WE HAVE DELIVERED  200,000 LBS OF 

DELICIOUS HEALTHY SOUP 

During these times of social and economic turmoil we have extended our reach in support of frontline health workers, domestic violence emergency shelters, marginalized seniors, transitional housing for homeless, Indigenous Peoples, youth in crisis, centres for drug addiction and mental health, and food banks. 

IT IS OUR INHERENT BELIEF THAT SOUP IS

THE UNIVERSAL COMFORT FOOD 

The agencies we support with our delicious ready to eat, heat and serve soup tell us repeatedly that the value of our support has a positive impact on the physical and mental health of their clients. They appreciate it has been developed specifically for them, and most importantly, that the donation is not random, thereby resulting in minimal waste. This pandemic illustrates the critical need for healthy food. It saves lives.
