Food Service Job Training

Our staff identifies, trains, and mentors homeless clients to work in our kitchen. Clients are trained in food prep, sanitary methods, inventory management, kitchen maintenance, team work, workplace skills, and more. Clients are mentored to enter the job sector with marketable skills and self-sufficiency. 

Feeding The Homeless

The reasons for homelessness are many to include addiction, mental illness and loss of employment. In the summer, it is hot in San Antonio and in colder months, it becomes dangerous for homeless as the fight to keep warm. The homeless in our city have a place to escape the elements where they are welcomed and receive a hot meal.

However, there is one simple thing we can do right now. Provide them food for today.

We have partnered with Haven for Hope which provides all the services the homeless need to get off the streets and back into permanent housing. The great thing about Haven for Hope shelter is it gives the homeless a “hand up” and not just a “hand out.” They offer drug and alcohol treatment, job training, job placement, identity recovery (provides I.D.s), a healthcare clinic, a mailing address, clothing, showers, restrooms, laundry, medication dispensary, haircuts, dental care, bus fare, and sack lunches for the working homeless.
