The Capuchin Soup Kitchen’s Meldrum site is located one block from the original soup kitchen location on Mt. Elliott and serves the chronically poor. Approximately 600 meals a day are served at the Meldrum Kitchen. Our Meldrum guests are typically male, experiencing homelessness or in unstable housing, often diagnosed with a mental illness and/or substance abuse addiction. In addition, this facility provides showers and a change of clothing for about 23 people each day to give those in need a fresh focus and an increased sense of dignity and self-worth.
Meals are served indoors from 8:30 am – 9:30 am and from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm, Mondays through Fridays. Our client advocate and chaplain will also be available.
