We are a mobile soup kitchen delivering hot homemade soup, bread, and survival supplies to the homeless in downtown Berkeley. Soup Delivery Program -A roster of volunteer home cooks make up to nine gallons of soup every Thursday and Sunday for delivery on the streets that night. One of the CTH! vans leaves with a volunteer driver and co-pilot with the soup in insulated containers and drives around on a designated route offering a cup of hot soup with bread to anyone who needs it. Most of the ingredients for the soup are donated by the volunteer cooks. CTH! provides the cups, spoons, paper napkins, candy, and survival supplies such as socks, shoes, jeans, hoodies etc.. Most of the clothing is donated or bought at thrift stores. CTH! also pays for the gas, insurance, registration, and maintenance for the van. On an average night CTH! serves 100 homeless men and women. 23506 Grocery Delivery Program -With the onset of the pandemic and the lock-down, many unhoused people lost access to their normal supplies of food and water. The restaurants were shut so nobody was giving their leftovers or a take-out to the people on the street. Water fountains were shut down for public health reasons. Life on the streets, which was already very harsh, became much worse during the pandemic. In response to this increased and urgent need, CTH! started a new program, Consider The Homeless! Still CARES, and started distributing grocery bags of food that required no cooking or preparation and most importantly included bottled water. A new team of volunteers was assembled to create food orders, make regular shopping trips to CostCo, and other discount grocery outlets, and assemble the bags on the morning of the lunchtime delivery every Monday and Friday. Over time, the demand increased, and volunteers streamlined the food distribution system. CTH! is now serving up to 150 grocery bags twice a week. 74404 Advocacy and Community Outreach -In the course of food deliveries, upon request or obvious needs, CTH provides an information and referral service which puts people in touch with available services for health, safety, housing, etc. These communications facilitate and generally promote a sense of identity and community, which encourages working towards solutions. These are personal, respectful, non-political conversations. CTH! also advocates for homeless welfare programs and affordable housing programs at City Council meetings and other appropriate venues and closely monitors state and local policies regarding the unhoused population. 97910 Jeanne Pimentel Secretary 10.00 0 Barbara Brust President & CEO 40.00 15892 Margaret Wilkinson CFO/Treasurer 10.00 0 Paul Kealoha-Blake Director 21.00 0 Andrea Henson Director 7.00 0 Moni Law Director 7.00 0 J Michael Reagan Director 7.00 0 Marcia Bohan Volunteer Coor. 7.00 0 Hannah Lopez Supplies Mgr. 7.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false CA Theresa Pham-Lac 2436 Sacramento Street Berkeley CA 94702 9512373902 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 20726 35037 18672 17033 179306 270774 0 0 20726 35037 18672 17033 179306 270774 0 270774 0 0 0 270774 1.00000 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Other Expenses.1001 Advertising and Promotion $565 Other Expenses.1002 Office Expenses $2310 Other Expenses.1012 Insurance $4335 Other Expenses.1 Savings Needs $25037 Other Expenses.2 CTH Still Cares $20940 Other Expenses.3 Street Support $9384 Other Expenses.4 Food for Serving $4921 Other Expenses.5 Other Supplies $3105 Other Expenses.6 Fundraiser Expense $2057 Other Expenses.7 Car & Truck $1748 Other Expenses.8 Bank Fees $1283 Other Expenses.9 Gasoline for Deliveries $988 Other Expenses.10 Cleaning Supplies $817 Other Expenses.11 Repairs & Maintenance $476 Other Expenses.12 Other Business Expenses $373
