Soup at Spalding

I will be presenting at Soup at Spaulding NEXT Thursday the 18th
Dinner is served at 7. Presentations begin at 8. Voting is at 8:30 (ish)

PLEASE come out and support the project..or another one if its grabs you!

Info about Soup at Spalding .

Because we think the SOUP event they have in Mexicantown is so rad, we've started up our own at Spaulding Court, in Corktown. For those of you who aren't familiar, SOUP is a monthly dinner that raises money to distribute to projects that the dinner guests select.

It goes like this: people come for dinner--soup, salad and bread--and give $5. At the end of the meal, three folks present projects they'd like to accomplish and the crowd votes for a winner. At the currently running SOUP in Mexicantown, all the proceeds (minus the costs of the meal) go to the project.

At Spaulding, we're doing things a bit differently. First of all, Soup at Spaulding happens every Thursday! We split the proceeds from the dinner between the vote winner and Friends of Spaulding Court. Additionally, we post a video of the winning presentation on Kickstarter and in one weeks time, try to raise the same amount the dinner brings in. This doubles the impact for both causes!

If you'd like to get involved with Soup at Spaulding, please contact Aitchemel@gmail.com. If you'd like to present a project, please contact jonkoller@gmail.com. (read less)
