The Woven and Soul in a Bowl to Provide Hot Meals for Raleigh Community This Thanksgiving

RALEIGH, N.C. - Nov. 14, 2022 - PRLog -- North Carolina food truck Soul in a Bowl and non-profit Woven, Women Leadership have partnered to provide free cooked meals for those in need this Thanksgiving. This is the first year the two organizations have partnered to give back to the Raleigh community.

On Nov. 24, all those in need of a cooked meal can stop by the food truck with no questions asked and receive a plate.  Two locations, with separate time slots, will serve as stops for the food truck:

• Moore Square Station from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
• Spring Forest Park from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.

The food truck's holiday menu will be a full Thanksgiving meal, consisting of turkey breast, baked chicken, rice, yams, dressing, green beans, rolls, and assorted pie slices. Sweet tea, lemonade and bottled water will be available.

Soul in a Bowl (https://www.savory59.com/), specializes in soul food dishes, is a mobile food truck that is also available for catering and family style meals.

Woven (https://www.thejohowell.com/woven), owned by Betty "Jo Howell" Jackson, provides a faith-based platform for resources and community. The organization was constructed to bridge all women together while seeking to center women in the Lord. Jackson's journey has taken her through several industries such as hospitality, technology, fashion and nonprofit/profit organization. Jackson is also co-owner of Jo Howell Home Accessories and Candles. Woven has also hosted a "Keeping it Cute" campaign, collecting hygiene items for The Women's Center of Raleigh.

"We realized there was a need to provide those in need with warm, cooked food outside of shelters," said Tranita Alexander of Soul in a Bowl. "We often think of conducting food drives during the holidays, but sometimes those in need lack resources or the setup to cook a full Thanksgiving meal."

"We are excited to give back to our community in a unique way, and meet those in need where they are," said Betty Jackson of The Woven. "Whoever needs a hot meal or just friendly faces this holiday are welcome to stop by and grab a plate."
