Youth Villages Soup Sunday

Our 35th annual Soup Sunday invites you to an elevated experience like no other! This year, Soup Sunday will feature 25 of Memphis’ best restaurants and caterers serving your local favorites that will top off your day of fun with delicious innovation. In addition to these exclusive tasting opportunities, attendees will also enjoy beer, mimosas, and a special gift. Soup Sunday has always encompassed the very heart of Memphis with good food, a sense of community, and the chance to give back, and this year is no exception! Funds raised from Soup Sunday provide support for the Youth Villages LifeSet program. LifeSet is one of the nation’s first — and now one of the largest — evidence-informed programs helping young people who age out of foster care.

Each year, approximately 20,000 young people turn 18 in foster care; they need comprehensive support as they transition from state services to independence. LifeSet puts transition-age youth in the driver’s seat of their lives with a trained specialist by their side to help them identify and achieve goals.
