University Presbyterian Church is continuing their innovative program called Community Soup, which is a grassroots model for funding small projects (between $400 – $600) through community meals. Community members come together to share a meal at an affordable price.
All income from the meal is given as a grant to support a project to benefit the Buffalo community. Everyone who purchases a meal has one vote to decide who gets the grant. The church would like the project ideas to come from individuals between the ages of 15 and 25 to help encourage young people to engage in their community.
You can find more information on the program in the brochure below:
