Let’s all celebrate the 4th of July together!

Welcome Neighbor STL and 3 of our refugee chefs, who recently obtained their Citizenship invite you to a drive-thru/picnic package, to celebrate with you the Independence Day. They will prepare and deliver a 6-course Indian and Syrian meal directly to your car with a wide smile and heartfelt thank you.

These meals present an opportunity for refugee families to share knowledge and skills unique to them.  It is also an opportunity for us to get a glimpse into their culture. These fundraising efforts can set them on a path of greater independence and confidence in their lives here in in the USA.  We are appreciative of our past and future supporters who feed our soul and we hope we return the favor.

Drive up to pick up your to go picnic package on Tuesday, July 4th from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm at STL Foodworks, 408 N Sarah Street, St. Louis, MO 63108. Our volunteers will bring your meals directly to your car.

In our drive thru events, we usually provide individual packaging, but if you would like to order for a large picnic, and you prefer a buffet style, mention that in your order. Please note that for a buffet style you will need to provide a plates and utensils.
