  • Program 2 [2020]

    A NATURAL, BUT INDIRECT, OUTCOME OF VOLUNTEER-BASED MEAL PROGRAM IS THE PLATFORM THAT IS PROVIDED TO THE COMMUNITY FOR SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES. THIS IS AN INDIRECT, BUT IMPORTANT SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY THAT IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE SONSHINE SOUP KITCHEN. SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES ARE PROVIDED TO PERSONS WHO HAVE SERVICE REQUIREMENTS AND ALSO TO THOSE WHO WISH TO FULFILL ALTRUISTIC TENDENCIES. IN RETURN A LARGE LABOR EXPENSE IS MINIMIZED FOR THE SOUP KITCHEN. APPROXIMATELY, 2,843 VOLUNTEERS WERE USED IN 2020 RESULTING IN 4,732 HOURS BEING SERVED. AT A MINIMUM WAGE CALCULATION, WITH TAXES INCLUDED, THIS LABOR SAVED THE SOUP KITCHEN 34,108.
