DailyGood: Soul Food: So All May Eat

Daily Good News: a service of CharityFocus

...A community needs a soul if it is to become a true home for human beings. You, the people must give it this soul. --Pope Jean Paul II

Inspiration of the Day:
In a world where a bite of fast food is cheaper than fresh fruits and vegetables, processed goods line the walls of food banks and soup kitchen gruel lacks key nutrients, being low-income means running on a toxin-rich diet. But at the SAME (So All May Eat) Cafe in Denver, Colorado, customers can walk in with empty wallets and leave nourished by healthy, organic food that otherwise would have broken their budgets. Rather than setting prices, the SAME Cafe invites customers to pay whatever price they think is fair or volunteer in exchange for a meal. Fueled by a lot of heart, pay-as-you-can and pay-it-forward restaurants are springing up across the United States, nourishing bodies and souls with food, service, and community. [ more ]
