Soup's On!

Search your local listings for community soup kitchens where your students can get involved. Speak with the person in charge to determine what specific ways the students can help. These charities are usually grateful to have extra hands. For example, older students can help unload the stock while younger students can help sort the donated items. There might even be an opportunity for the kids to mingle with the individuals who come for supper. Stick around after the event to help clean up. After all is said and done, you will find that it is hard to gauge who actually received the greater blessing—those there for the charity services or the students who served and spent supervised time with them.
