Jueves Con Causa volunteer team smiling together before serving meals
Every Thursday · El Paso, TX

Every Thursday,
We Serve more than Food.

Jueves Con Causa brings warm meals, kindness, and hope to people experiencing homelessness in our community.

Powered by local volunteers, donors, and sponsors who believe no one should feel forgotten.

Our Why

Why We Show Up Every Thursday

Because one meal can remind someone they matter. Jueves Con Causa exists to bring food, compassion, and dignity to people who need it most.

Who We Are

A community showing up, one Thursday at a time.

Jueves Con Causa was started by a small group of neighbors in El Paso, TX who saw a simple need: a warm meal, a kind word, and a moment of dignity for people experiencing homelessness in our city.

Every Thursday, our volunteers cook, pack, and hand-deliver meals — along with drinks, hygiene supplies, and conversation — to community members living on the streets. We serve consistently, so the people we visit know we'll be back next week.

We are 100% volunteer-powered and community-funded. Every dollar and every hour goes directly toward feeding our neighbors.

Our Mission

"To serve meals, spread compassion, and bring hope to people experiencing homelessness — every Thursday."

What We Do
