| St. Vincent de Paul Society of Marin County - Dining Room San Rafael, CA 94901 415.454.3303 |
Details: Each day, we serve our homeless neighbors and other struggling citizens with our soup kitchen, housing assistance, open pantry and much more. The Free Dining Room was created in 1981 as a free kitchen to serve Marin County’s hungry citizens with dignity and a welcoming demeanor. The Free Dining Room has been open every single day since then, and has served more than two million meals to our hungry neighbors. Each year our kitchen serves more than 250,000 meals, providing the only sustenance of the day for many of our diners. Many of our diners are Marin’s “working poor,†living below the poverty line and trying to make ends meets. We also serve senior citizens and people with disabilities, who often appreciate a hot meal and some warm conversation. Finally, the Dining Room offers a welcome respite to those who do not have housing, and must sleep in their cars or in the hills of Marin County. |
