To help alleviate hunger in our community in an environment of respect, care and hospitality.

The Queen City Kitchen Mission

Feeding a Force for Good

Since 1976, Cincinnati’s oldest soup kitchen remains true to our mission of providing food with dignity for neighbors in need.

This is a modern evolution of a neighborhood safe haven, a staple of the community that looks out for each other, and lends a helping hand to those who are living on the edge. Powered by a network of compassionate volunteers and generous donors of funds and food, we’re attacking the prevalence of food insecurity in neighborhoods where the poverty rate reaches 40% and investing in a force for good that can transform entire communities—one meal at a time.
