January is National Soup Month!

What better comfort food to celebrate in the depths of winter than a warm bowl of soup! We are thrilled to highlight a long standing partnership with The Greater Boston Food Bank (GBFB) Kettle Cuisine has been a partner of GBFB since the year 2000 donating over 713,000 meals. We began working with them at their previous facility in Chelsea, MA. When they moved to their beautiful new facility in Lynn, MA to accommodate their expanding business they found additional ways of supporting GBFB through our direct distribution programs. In October they kicked off their monthly sponsorship of the School-based Pantry at the Connery School in Lynn by having children and their parents sample a selection of Kettle Cuisine soups including Italian Wedding, Chicken Noodle and Loaded Potato soup.   Kettle Cuisine has committed to supplying a monthly donation of soup for the 275 children and their families that pantry serves monthly. In addition Kettle Cuisine employees volunteered at the Lynn Senior Brown Bag distribution providing 650 at risk elders with limited resources a pint of nutritious Tomato with Garden Vegetable soup to supplement the regular monthly distribution at Greater Lynn Senior Services (GLYSS).   Kettle Cuisine’s financial commitment to the food bank began in 2009 when GBFB was in need of a larger facility and kicked off our Fighting Hunger Feeding Hope Capital Campaign. This past year they donated additional funds which allowed GBFB to provide an additional 16,500 meals to those in need. Kettle Cuisine  has a passion for providing great tasting and wholesome food while contributing to hunger relief in their community.  They are a model partner supporting our mission with food, money and time. Thank you Kettle Cuisine for providing hot nutritious meals year round and helping to end hunger here in Eastern Massachusetts.
