Leadership

Meet the dedicated team that makes the Belfast Soup Kitchen a reality! Our leadership staff works hard every day to make sure everyone who walks through our doors gets a warm meal and a welcoming space. Supporting them is our incredible Board of Directors, a group of local folks who help guide our mission and keep things running strong.

 

Together, we’re all about good food, kindness, and community.
