The Long Beach Soup Kitchen has been serving the community for more than 40 years. The work we do can not be accomplished without the support of the surrounding community. On December 3rd, recognized as “Giving Tuesday”, LBSK will begin the collection for our 2nd Annual Long Beach City-wide Juice Box Drive. The goal is to collect 2,005 juice boxes by Saturday, December 21st.
Giving Tuesday is the charitable endcap to Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. Why is the goal 2,005? The LBSK serve that many meals monthly & in addition to the hot meal the guest is given a brown bag lunch with a juice box. Last year our expectations were exceeded resulting in a two month supply of juice boxes rather than the goal of a one month supply we had hoped for. We are so grateful & fortunate to be part of a community that answers the call to support those who we feed.
