Downtown Soup Kitchen Hope Center

Downtown Soup Kitchen Hope Center Hope Restored • Hearts Renewed • Lives Transformed For over 30 years, we have served the Anchorage community as a soup kitchen and shower house.

After years of meeting the basic needs of homeless and struggling individuals, we decided to offer them an opportunity to break out of the cycle of homelessness through vocational training and job placement. Feed Me Hope Culinary School and Bakery opened in 2016 and our students are thriving. It has been thrilling to see their lives transformed! Visit us at downtownhopecenter.org for more info, OR

We are proud to honor Sister Sallee Jolley and Sister Sandy AhSue as our May Volunteers of the Month! Both have faithfully volunteered at DHC for over a year. 💙
They share that what they love the most about DHC is the caring, family-like atmosphere and the opportunity to serve others with hope and compassion. From serving meals to helping with clothing and laundry, they believe there is a place for everyone to make a difference.
'When you're in the service of your fellow man, you are in the service of God, and it feels good!'-AhSue, 'I hope that when I return to St. George, Utah, I will find a place like DHC to continue serving. I have been forever changed because of my time here.'-Jolley
