Matt Welch Development Group, in partnership with AMEN House, has established Russ’ Kitchen in loving memory of Russ Bourget. It is the next step in ending hunger in Scott County. We have created a beautiful, restaurant-style space that we hope to fill with the aromas of home-cooked food mingled with laughter and community. A space where a mom facing food insecurity could bring her 5 year old and they would have no reason to think it is not just a regular restaurant.

The new soup kitchen, located at 533 East Washington Street, Georgetown, KY, will open its doors on Thursday, November 6. Operating hours will be weekdays 1pm to 2:30 pm. We plan to expand hours over the following months to include evening and Saturday options. This initiative is a vital step toward addressing food insecurity in the community and ensuring that no one goes hungry.
