| David Timothy (a.k.a. the SoupMan) founded The SoupMobile in 2003. His vision was to start a traditional soup kitchen where the homeless could come to eat. However, after assessing the needs of our homeless population, David realized that a mobile soup kitchen would be more effective. Because the homeless have limited access to trans portation, the SoupMan serves meals to them where they gather.
A Typical Day The SoupMobile serves a complete hot, hearty, and healthy meal to the homeless every weekday, year round, rain or shine and even on holidays. Our chef's prepare each meal with 'love' as the magic ingredient.
As the SoupMobile approaches each of its feeding stops, the SoupMan blasts the theme from Rocky, his favorite movie, over the van’s loudspeaker system. Heard for miles around, this music tells the homeless that it’s time for lunch.
Our Philosophy The SoupMan believes that there's a little bit of Rocky in all of us. He also believes that in each one of us resides the spirit and the passion to triumph and be the champion of our own lives!
The SoupMobile will serve over 200,000 meals in 2011! We are literally on the front lines of the war against hunger in the Dallas area.
