WE ARE STILL SERVING OUR COMMUNITY DURING THE COVID 19 CRISIS.

OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY IS THE SAFETY OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND OUR CLIENTS.

HERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT WE ARE DOING AT THE SOUP KITCHEN TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE.

WE ARE CLEANING AND SANITIZING OUR KITCHEN AND LOBBY MORE FREQUENTLY.

WE ALSO HAVE A CLEANER COME IN AFTER HOURS TO SANITIZE ALL WORK AREAS.

WE HAVE ASKED OUR VOLUNTEERS TO WASH THEIR HANDS AND CHANGE THEIR GLOVES MORE OFTEN THROUGH-OUT THE DAY.

WE HAVE ASKED OUR VOLUNTEERS THAT ARE NOT FEELING WELL, OR THAT HAVE HEALTH ISSUES THAT MAY BE EASILY COMPROMISED TO PLEASE STAY HOME.

WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS, TOGETHER!

Join Our Cause

HUNGER TAKES NO BREAKS

The number of people in our area who need help to get adequate nutrition is constantly growing.  El Caldito is part of the solution, and we have expanded our services to try to keep up with the increasing need.  Since 1984, El Caldito has grown from serving small meals to just a few people, to serving fully prepared, balanced meals to hundreds of people every day of the week. Almost every bit of the work we do is done by volunteers, and a great deal of the food we serve is donated or provided to us at low cost.
