This Year's Project: Commercial Oven


About Our Organization

Founded in 1987, the Siouxland Soup Kitchen is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to providing a free meal to anyone in need, in a dignified and respectful manner. The Soup Kitchen serves over 3,000 meals per month, relying only on the assistance and generosity of our local community. Any donation will be greatly appreciated and used to provide nourishment to someone in need.



Current Project: Commercial Oven



We purchased our current oven refurbished & it is failing us again. One side overcooks & the other undercooks. We have had technicians recalibrate it, replace the thermostat, replace the temperature knob, etc. It is time for a new one! We serve 150-190 hot meals a day, so a commercial oven is crucial! This is a huge expense, so we need your help!



Past Projects

  • Kitchen Equipment for the Siouxland Soup Kitchen


    Project Details

    We have two pieces of kitchen equipment that would really help us out preparing meals: a commercial grade can opener & a commercial grade mixer! Each one is around $2,000, so currently not possible in our budget. For one meal we open 48 15-ounce cans per food item, such as a fruit or vegetable. This takes awhile & is hard on the hands & wrists. Since we feed around 120 per day, a mixer would make it a lot easier to make mashed potatoes & gravy instead of stirring it by hand.

    We sincerely appreciate the public's help!



  • Commercial pots, pans, & baking ware


    Project Details

    We are in desperate need of large pots and pans, and baking dishes. We average 100 meals per night, so commercial cookware is essential. Thank you very much for helping us get the needed equipment to continue feeding anyone who is hungry in Siouxland!



  • Food Prep Items


    Project Details

    Looking to purchase food prep items. Such as a commercial grade food slicer, commercial grade knife block, pots and pans.
