Soup that not only satiates your physical hunger, but your hunger for change–that’s what Pontiac SOUP has been serving up since 2017.
Based on the SOUP model that started in Detroit, Pontiac SOUP is a public event where attendees give a small donation for which they receive a simple dinner (soup) and a vote on one of several community improvement project ideas being presented that evening by local residents. Anyone can submit a project proposal prior to the event, and four are chosen by organizers to present at the evening. The winner takes home the kitty.
