Mother's Kitchen - Soup Kitchen

WHAT IS MOTHER'S KITCHEN

In 1996, people inspired by Amma's teachings about serving the poor asked her if they should find a place with a real need and try to help. When Amma said yes, they found a small soup kitchen in west Oakland serving free meals every weekday while operating on a shoestring budget. Mother’s Kitchen began serving hot meals there twice a month, soon adding bagged lunches too.

The idea spread and soon Mother’s Kitchens began popping up all over the map. Currently, there are 42 in the U.S., Canada and Costa Rica. Most help existing facilities, by purchasing food and supplies from donations made to Mother's Kitchen, and by supplying volunteers to prepare, cook and serve the meals.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we can no longer meet at the church, and are in the process of looking for a new location.  Thank you all for your past support and for your patience as we move forward with our search.  Once we have found a new space we will post it here.

If you have any suggestions regarding possible locations, please let us know at annmataji51@gmail.com.
