Lunch Break To Host “Soup For The Soul” Fundraiser Event

Updated: Sept. 17, 2024

RED BANK, NJ — Lunch Break will host their fall fundraiser event “Soup for the Soul” in Lunch Break’s Community Dining Room this October.

The event is scheduled for Oct. 12 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., organizers said, a change from the date initially announced.

At the fundraiser, attendees will be able to enjoy music, food, and entertainment, Lunch Break Development Assistant Caitlin McGarry said.

Event admission includes a hand-painted, ceramic bowl from the Empty Bowl Collective, McGarry said.

The collective is a local initiative where hand-made ceramic bowls are hand-painted by local students and given freely to nonprofits battling hunger.

In addition to the bowl, attendees will also be able to choose a soup of their choice, and engage in fun fall craft activities and interactive live music activities.

“We hope this event can give you a deeper understanding of the soup kitchen experience, what we do here at Lunch Break, and why your support matters,” Lunch Break officials said.

Event admission is free for kids. Adults can either bring a full bag of groceries for their ticket or give a suggested donation of $25.

For more information or to register for the event, you can visit the Lunch Break website.

The event will take place at 121 Drs. James Parker Boulevard, Red Bank.
