FEEDING PEOPLE & AFFIRMING LIVES

  • IN 2024, THE BREAD LINE SERVED 66,603 MEALS FROM ITS DOWNTOWN SOUP KITCHEN, THE STONE SOUP CAFE. THIS MARKS A 12% INCREASE IN SERVICE OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR & MAKING IT THE BUSIEST YEAR IN THE BREAD LINE'S 41 YEAR HISTORY OF FEEDING FAIRBANKS. TO MEET THIS NEED, THE BREAD LINE RECEIVED 63,370 POUNDS OF DONATION FOOD. THE MAJORITY OF THIS DONATED FOOD CAME FROM THE FAIRBANKS COMMUNITY FOOD BANK & THE FAIRBANKS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AS WELL AS THE GENEROSITY OF INDIVIDUAL DONORS FROM THE FAIRBANKS COMMUNITY. THE STONE SOUP CAFE IS OPEN MONDAY-FRIDAY, REGARDLESS OF HOLIDAY OR FOUL WEATHER & IS PRIMARILY STAFFED BY VOLUNTEERS. IN 2024, LOCAL VOLUNTEERS SERVED 2,668 SHIFTS TOTALING 6,558 HOURS AT THE SOUP KITCHEN. THE STONE SOUP COMMUNITY GARDEN HAS CONTINUED TO GROW SINCE 2015. HAVING SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED SEVERAL BEDS AS AN "SNACKING GARDEN" IN 2022, WE ARE NOW EXPANDING RAISED BEDS TO INCLUDE A PERENNIAL "FOOD FOREST" IN COLLABORATION WITH RURAL CAP & THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION. THE GARDEN CONTINUES TO MEET ITS ROLLING GOAL OF GROWING ENOUGH FOOD TO SUPPLEMENT THE BREAD LINE'S ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAM AS WELL AS PROVIDE NUTRITIOUS, FRESH VEGETABLES TO THE SENIOR CENTER, MEALS ON WHEELS & SEVERAL DOWNTOWN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES AS WELL.

  • THE BREAD LINE'S CULINARY TRAINING PROGRAM, STONE'S THROW, GRADUATED SIX ADULT STUDENTS BETWEEN TWO COHORTS. OVER THE SUMMER OF 2024, STONE'S THROW STAFF ALSO TAUGHT FOURTEEN TEENAGERS INCARCERATED IN THE DETENTION WIND OF THE FAIRBANKS YOUTH FACILITY AS WELL AS HOSTING A WINTER COOKIE DECORATING PARTY WITH THE YOUTH THERE. OVER THE SUMMER, STONE'S THROW CHEFS GAVE CULINARY INSTRUCTION WITH CALYPSO FARM'S "COMMUNITY ROOTS" YOUTH JOB TRAINING PROJECT. WE ALSO PROVIDED ON-SITE COOKING TRAINING FOR CALYPSO'S NEW "INDIGENOUS AGRICULTURE" PROGRAM. ADDITIONALLY, STONE'S THROW CHEFS GAVE REGULAR COOKING DEMONSTRATIONS THROUGH A LOCAL "CHEF AT THE MARKET" PROGRAM WITH PUBLIC OUTREACH AT AREA FARMERS MARKETS & INCREASED THEIR COMMUNITY MEALS PRODUCTION AT THE SOUTHSIDE COMMUNITY FARMERS MARKET FROM ONE DAY A MONTH (2023) TO WEEKLY (2024). OUR KID'S CAFE PROGRAM ENJOYED A HUGE TURNOUT IN 2024. THIS PROGRAM, IS SEASONAL OPPOSITE THE GARDEN, RUNNING FROM SEPTEMBER TO MAY. WE CONTINUED OUR COLLABORATION WITH THE FAIRBANKS CHILDREN'S MUSEUM & WERE ABLE TO BRING IN TWO DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS TO HELP RUN THE PROGRAM. TEACHING LOCAL KIDS FOOD SAFETY & GOOD CITIZENSHIP, THIS PROGRAM MADE THOUSANDS OF SANDWICHES FOR THE SOUP KITCHEN & PREPPED HUNDREDS OF POUNDS OF PRODUCE.
