1. Soup Sisters and Broth Brothers is a non-profit charitable social enterprise
dedicated to providing comfort to women, children and youth through the making,
sharing and donating of soup.
Soup Sisters and Broth Brothers was founded in 2009 by Calgarian Sharon Hapton
who had a very simple belief in the power of soup as a nurturing and nourishing
gesture that could make a tangible difference. Hapton believed that two of societies
most prevalent issues, domestic abuse and youth homelessness would benefit from
the care and warmth that comes in a bowl of soup. A powerful message that says 'we
care' is now being delivered to over 30 residential shelters across the country
through home-made delicious soup made with the finest ingredients.
Nick began volunteering at Soup Sister events in May of 2015.
Nick helps with the preparation of the ingredients and workstations prior to the
participants arriving. At the Soup Sisters events Nick manages a soup station of 5-6
participants who are working together to make a specific soup.
During the event, Nick also works with other volunteers, to serve soup, salad and
bread to the participants and also helps in bussing after the meal session is
completed.
Nick also volunteers at the Soup Sisters and Broth Brothers Big Stir events.
Nick is always happy to help out in anyway he can to ensure the events go smoothly
and is a cheerful volunteer. We are always happy to have Nick and his brother help
out with Soup Sisters events.
