Before the arrival of the pandemic, soup and shelter kitchens were more than just a place to go for a free hot meal. They also offered up companionship, conversation and compassion for a marginalized segment of society.
Take Thanksgiving, for example. It’s one of the most social holidays of the year. The turkey dinners are normally a big deal at The Ottawa Mission, a nonprofit organization that provides food, shelter, clothing as well as other vital services and programs to the homeless.
It’s not uncommon to see the mayor and police chief volunteering during the communal feast. Tables are decorated for visitors with pretty tablecloths and flower arrangements “as if they were at their grandmother’s house,” said chef Ric Watson, director of food services for The Ottawa Mission.
