Forget What You Think When You Hear "Soup Kitchen"
TacT aims to put a modern spin on the traditional soup kitchen. We provide no charge, home-cooked meals to any guest who walks through our doors. There are no questions to answer, no forms to fill out, and most importantly, no judgement to endure. Our compassionate, friendly volunteers are dedicated to making the experience as comfortable as possible for all of our friends.
At TacT, we want to provide the personal touch that everyone loves to experience. Instead of waiting in line to sit at long, narrow tables, our guests are treated to a cafe-style setting. Our tables seat 4 to 6 guests, and all meals are served by our volunteers at their seats.
Our hallmark Thursday night "Family Cafe" is what really sets us apart. Focusing on children and families, we serve kid-friendly meals and provide coloring books, crayons, and card games for after dinner entertainment. We encourage the children to bring any school papers and hang them on our bulletin board.
We strive to not only provide our families a safe, warm place to go, but to make them feel like they are a part of a community where they are loved. Our volunteers take great care in getting to know our guests, just as you would expect from your favorite coffee shop.
