Saturday Breakfast for our Neighbors

Each Saturday, our Saturday Breakfast Teams provide a healthy breakfast and a safe space for those who are unsheltered and anyone who walks through our doors. Volunteers prepare a protein-rich breakfast for anyone in need every Saturday morning at 7 AM. There are usually 125-200 guests. Scrambled eggs, potatoes, waffles, quesadillas, bread, oatmeal, cold cereal, juice, and coffee are served in a welcoming and cheerful atmosphere. This is one of UUCSR’s most visible and rich community activities. About 75 volunteers each contribute about 2-4 hours/month (or more), and our guests are very grateful.

If you have a few hours to spare for the Saturday Breakfast or are truly committed to UU principles, please sign up at the Advocates’ table any Sunday morning or contact us at saturdaybreakfast@uusantarosa.org. This is a real labor of love and requires no special talents, and we hope you join us!
