2026 Annual Appeal Letter

Dear Friends,


Thank you for your support for the last 37 years!


We know you recognize the importance of the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen (ICSK) to the Mount
Pleasant area. At the ICSK, people can get a free breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday, no questions
asked. Our dedicated staff and devoted volunteers work hard to create delicious and nutritious meals and take pride in providing a safe environment where everyone feels welcome.


This is our Annual Appeal for financial support. Now more than ever, we need your help. Over the past few
years, we have experienced a significant drop in financial support and an increase in overall expenses. We are a private non-profit and are not funded by any governmental entity. Our support comes entirely from those who see our mission as crucial to the health and safety of our community. We hope you are one of those people.

 

In the last year, ICSK has:


● Prepared and provided more than 29,000 hot meals on-site;
● Delivered more than 2,400 meals to the guests at the RISE domestic violence shelter and the ICRH
homeless shelter; and
● Obtained and distributed nearly 350,000 pounds of excess food donations to seven other non-profit
organizations to support their free food programs in four counties.


We wish that we didn’t need to exist. Until our services are no longer needed, we will endeavor to use your
donations to responsibly execute our mission. The ICSK is a 501(c)(3) organization, so the full amount/value
of your contribution to our organization is tax deductible.


We are deeply grateful for your support. Make your donation below.

Executive Director
