Each evening, 365 days a year, we open the doors of Sally's Cafe at 2476 Edison Ave to serve anyone in need of a nutritious meal. For many, this is the only real meal they will have for the day. For these reasons, this outreach service is called Meals with Compassion.

Last year we served over 24,000 evening meals to our dinner guests. In the last year, we have been serving an average of 100 meals per evening, whereas two years ago, we were serving an average of 50 meals each evening.

We invite you to not only prepare the meal, but also to serve and see the smiles from the men, women and children who dine with us.

We are in need individuals and groups who are willing to help serve the meal and/or prepare the meal and bring it to our location to be served to our dinner guests. This is an incredible hands-on opportunity to truly serve our neighbors in need. Church groups, civic organizations or businesses can support the program on a regular basis, adopting a day per month or quarter to help us help others throughout the year.

To learn more about this exciting service opportunity contact our volunteer coordinator by calling 239-278-1551 or by email.
