It was an incredible night at The Stewpot Alliance Spring Party on Thursday, May 2 at The Henry. We’re thrilled to announce a “record-breaking” Soup’s On check handed over to The Stewpot by The Alliance, Soup’s On 2024 chairs, and Brian C. Luscher in the amount of $598,000. We couldn’t be more grateful to all of our generous supporters. Nearby at the check presentation were 2025 chairs Buddy Jordan, Isabell Novakov-Higginbotham, and Trey Higginbotham! We can’t wait to see the amazing things to come. Read all about it at https://lnkd.in/giK22DpW.

Thank you George W. Bush Presidential Center for recognizing us with the George Bush Institute Trailblazer Citation Award at the 2024 Forum on Leadership. We're humbled and grateful for our staff, volunteers, and supporters who make what we do happen for those homeless and at-risk in the heart of Dallas.

Indra Nooyi, former Chairman and CEO of PepsiCo, was honored with the 2024 George W. Bush Medal for Distinguished Leadership.

The Soup’s On 2024 fundraiser celebrations abounded at this year’s Patron Party - Jeanne Prejean highlighting the occasion in MySweetCharity. As she mentions when “Chef Brian C. Luscher, longtime supporter/2023 Soup’s On! Co-Chair Christy Coltrin and Luncheon Co-Chairs Leah Jordan and Eric Swindle and Michelle and Rudy Segura” were asked if the $100,000 match was met for the event, she remarked they “were smiling.” Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/g3yBjEUZ #doinggood #soupson2024 #soupson #stewpotdallas #endhomelessness

“So we don’t go to the margins to make a difference. You go to the margins, so that the folks there make you different. And that’s how we achieve, I think, a sense of kinship and a connection…The Stewpot goes to the margins, and other voices suddenly get heard. And we’re all enriched because of it.” Father Gregory Boyle's words from Soup’s On 2024 were inspiring.

Did you catch Chef Brian Luscher on FOX 4 Good Day last week? You may have noticed the backdrop of art and thought to yourself, "Where can I see more of that"? Well, FOX 4 Good Day wondered the same thing! On Thursday, they swung by The Stewpot, eager to find out more about our Art Program firsthand—touring the studio, chatting with artists, and discovering how we support and empower those experiencing homelessness. 🎨 See the segment at: https://lnkd.in/gsy-bb6j. #ArtForAll #CommunitySupport #ServingSecondChances #endhomelessness #stewpotdallasart #dallas
