Saida “Soup Kitchen” feeds 3,000 people daily
29-5-2020
In its issue of today, Al Akhbar newspaper spotlighted the “Soup Kitchen” in Saida set up by Martyr Rashid Brom Dispensary, an affiliate of the “Social Solidarity Foundation”. The kitchen, to recall, opened in the wake of the October 17 Uprising to provide hot meals to poor residents of Saida and those hardly hit by the resulting calamitous living and economic conditions. Today, the Kitchen caters to around 3000 persons as compared to 400 at its opening date, Al Akhbar reported. However, the newspaper went on to say, the new developments and the increasing demand on the soup kitchen has developed a funding crisis, which, luckily, the Solidarity Foundation was able to overcome through the flow of service, in-kind and financial contributions. Noting, that scores of workers, students, teachers, housewives and lawyers participate in the preparation of the meals supervised by volunteer chefs. (Al Akhbar, Mary 29, 2020)
