Soul Food wants to say Thank You to the Paintsville Rotary Club for their generous donation tonight.
The Rotary had a Valentines Themed Night of Artistic Painting. Several people participated in an evening of drawing and painting and raised money for Soul Food Kentucky.
Their night of painting, is painting smiling faces on many children who now have food to eat on the weekends that would otherwise go without a meal.

We want to say Thankyou to Kevin and the team at Capital Tire in Hagerhill Ky for taking care of our van. We had some bad noises coming from the engine compartment that wasn't supposed to be there. They got it in and told us the alternator bearing and tensioner were the culprits.
They fixed the Ole Girl up and were backup and ready to deliver lunches to the kids in Johnson and Floyd County.

.........WANTED TO SHARE SOME LOOKING BACK ON 2025....
I was sitting here thinking and looking back on Soul Food in 2025.
I realized God had his hands all over Soul Food this year.
We have the Best Supporters, Best Volunteers and Best Board Members. All of these people are the backbone of Soul Food.

This year we went from feeding 533 children on the weekends to 600 children. Soul Food could not have accomplished this feat if it wasn't for all the Great People that support Soul Food.

We've had a van donated to us, New Horizon Graphics in Somerset Ky wrapped the van at a large discount and an individual offered to cover a major portion of the cost of wrapping the van. We now can pick up food and deliver it regardless of the weather.

Shortly after the school year started we were asked if we could take on another 14 children. Didn't think we could financially afford it, we put our situation out on social media and people from all over stepped up and donated all that was financially needed to cover our shortfall for the year and taking on the additional children.

It shows me that God's Hands were all over this situation. He is always there regardless, we just need to open our eyes and see how he works.

I just want to Thank everyone that gave, donated and help support our mission of No Child Going Hungry. We could not do what we do if it wasn't for all of you.

THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
PRAY THAT YOU HAVE A HAPPY and BLESSED NEW YEAR .

THANK YOU

We are so honored to share that Soul Food KY was featured in this month’s Foothills Connection Magazine! What a blessing to see our mission highlighted and to have the work of feeding children in Johnson and Floyd Counties recognized.
Every week, hundreds of students receive weekend meals through Soul Food, and it happens because of a community that believes every child deserves to be cared for, loved, and nourished. Thank you to our volunteers, church partners, schools, donors, and prayer warriors. You are part of every single bag that goes home.
We are excited for what God is doing, and we are believing for even more children reached in 2026. Thank you for being on this journey with us.
🍎 If you would like to learn more or get involved, message us. Together we can make a difference one child at a time.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Soul Food!🎄🎒

Today, we celebrate the greatest gift ever given. As we gather with family and serve our community, we reflect on the promise of hope and peace found in these powerful words:
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."
— Isaiah 9:6 (KJV) 📖✨

May your homes be filled with warmth, your hearts with joy, and your spirits with the peace that only He can provide.
