“Our Block Party for Good is about more than food,” said General (Ret.) John Michel, Founder of Soulcial Kitchen. “It’s about dignity. It’s about creating a space where neighbors can connect, where families can receive support without barriers, and where love is demonstrated through action. When we show up for each other, we build a community that thrives. February 27 is another opportunity to care, connect, and serve — together.”

The Block Party for Good continues to grow as a trusted monthly gathering where community members can access essential resources while experiencing hospitality and welcome in a celebratory, family-friendly atmosphere.

Soulcial Kitchen encourages residents to arrive early, as groceries and meals are distributed while supplies last.
