Can you help?
Your gift to St. Susan Center will help provide a nutritional meal to those in our community who enjoy far too few of them.
In 2008, St. Susan Center served 135,761 meals. That’s nearly 30,000 more meals than were needed in 2007. The need we have met over the past six years, in fact, has more than doubled, increasing by 128%. That increase is likely to continue, as our current economic condition causes more and more individuals and families to seek help wherever they can find it. Can you help?
All gifts, including those made in honor or in memory of a special person or event, are welcome and are acknowledged appropriately.

Current Wish List
St. Susan Center benefits
most from monetary contributions, because the soup kitchen has
greater buying power than most consumers, through the Food Bank of WNY.
However, if you would like to have a food drive to benefit the Center,
please consider asking for contributions of the items needed most.
Currently, they are:
- Fruit
- Good sources of calcium (milk,
yogurt, cheese)
- Healthy snacks (nuts, dried fruit,
granola)
Non-food gifts may also be given
in honor or in memory of a special
person or event.

Good nutrition is as challenging as making a part-time wage cover the cost of living plus medical expenses, as complicated as graduating from high school while caring for an infant, as difficult as finding work when you are unable to read a job application.
For our neighbors who face these and other challenges, St Susan Center provides a nutritional lunchtime meal every day.

St. Susan Center is more than a place for the economically disadvantaged. The Center also serves as a safe haven for the physically, mentally and emotionally challenged individuals in our community who feel isolated. Increasing health care costs, limited availability of specialized housing and the fact that people are living longer all add significantly to the number of individuals forced to make unhealthy, even life-threatening choices. St. Susan Center is a place where respect is served with each meal and every guest is an important part of our community. |
