PBJ Sandwiches for Soupmobile meets the first Friday of each month to make sandwiches for Dallas area homeless. We are a kid-friendly mixing pot of positive folks and all are welcome.
Volunteers are invited to bring supplies from our lists below, but no donations are required. If you'd like to come and just participate, that's completely fine as well. You don't have to stay the whole time– feel free to come and go as needed.

We ask that all breads are at least free of dairy, eggs, honey, and small nuts and seeds (due to dental issues).
All bread needs to be the standard square shape in order to fit into bags.
Whole wheat is preferred for its nutritional value and because the heels are safe to feed to birds (white is not.)
HOW-TO:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
- Disinfect your prep area and put on gloves.
- Don't use the heels.
- Put creamy peanut butter on both sides of the bread.
- Jelly goes in the middle.
- Leave the bags unsealed.
- 40 sandwiches to a tray: 16 down each side; 8 in the middle.
- Seal sandwiches after putting them in a tray.'
- Clean up after you're done making sandwiches. (We don't want to leave sticky counters or crumbs!)
- If you have recycling in your area, please help us by taking recyclables home with you.
- If you can, help us take out the trash.
- We need to sweep up all the floors afterwards.
