Supreme Group Salvation Army Golf Classic

Why do we need a new Commercial Kitchen?
The Salvation Army’s Castledowns location is seeking a new opportunity to serve its community. With help from our generous sponsors and donors, we’re installing a new commercial kitchen to replace the current, dated kitchen. The renovation will significantly enhance our ability to help the vulnerable individuals and families who turn to The Salvation Army for assistance.
With food insecurity on the area rising, Castledowns is a top-three food depot in Edmonton and provides food for up to 4000 people a month.
Community Meals
Castledowns currently hosts a Seniors Luncheon once a month but is limited to feeding only 50 individuals due to the current kitchen’s capacity. Serving Christmas dinner to people experiencing homelessness is also one of The Salvation Army’s hallmark events but has been discontinued in Edmonton. With a commercial kitchen, we will return to serving meals to our community’s vulnerable on special occasions.
Cooking Classes
Many of the individuals and families we serve crave self-sufficiency but lack basic cooking knowledge. Not only will we provide hands on training experiences to teach how to prepare a nutritious meal, we’ll also teach skills for meal planning on a budget and cooking classes for teens as well.
Emergency Disaster Services
In times of crisis and natural disasters, this kitchen will be an asset to our Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) teams. At the moment, EDS is limited to cooking only as much food as its mobile canteens can provide. The new commercial kitchen will enable crews to cook significantly larger quantities of food and deliver them to locations where they can efficiently feed first responders and those impacted by unfortunate events.
