Volunteers prepare more than 100 full hot meals in the kitchen, others collect the necessary food for the preparation of shopping bags and several provide service at the tables. No salary is paid to volunteers, all donations are directly applied for the welfare of the beneficiaries. A hundred beneficiaries are admitted to the Maison Soupe Foundation. Since its inception, tens of thousands of full hot meals have been served and thousands of bags of food have been distributed.
