Organic Soup Kitchen
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Organic Soup Kitchen announced that, thanks to its SoupMeal sales, the organization has been able to keep its doors open through the pandemic and continue providing healthy meals to community members in need.
Labeled “the soup that gives back,” these organic meals have become a staple in homes throughout Santa Barbara with all sales supporting functional nutrition and food security for cancer patients, chronically ill and low-income seniors.
As demand for nutritional services skyrockets and funding declines, SoupMeal sales have provided a stream of revenue that has allowed Organic Soup Kitchen to continue supporting the community.

Local agencies have turned to Organic Soup Kitchen to provide SoupMeals to their low-income residents and clients who would otherwise not have access to nutrient-dense food.
Scaling up to meet the demand from local nonprofits, Organic Soup Kitchen continues to meet the increased needs of Santa Barbara County within its 2,000-square-foot kitchen that they are already outgrowing and in need of additional storage, as well as refrigeration.
Since 2009, Organic Soup Kitchen has been the only organization in Santa Barbara County to handcraft and deliver metabolic oncology SoupMeals to the homes of low-income cancer patients, seniors and the chronically ill.
