Q&A with SOUL STAFF

I first discovered the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation and JBJ Soul Kitchen during my senior year at Kean University, while working on a marketing project for one of my classes. The project allowed me to delve into the organization’s mission and values, and I was instantly captivated by their commitment to addressing hunger and homelessness in our community. With the help of my professor, I was able to secure a Marketing Internship at JBJ Soul Kitchen for my final semester.

I learned so much through this wonderful experience, and upon graduating, I was given the amazing opportunity to work for the JBJ Soul Foundation as a full-time employee. Since then, I have been privileged to combine my passion for marketing and social media with my desire to make a positive difference in the lives of those in-need.

What sets JBJ Soul Kitchen apart from any other restaurant down the street is its truly unique and transformative experience that everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy. Every time I step foot into JBJ Soul Kitchen, I’m amazed by the incredible work carried out by my colleagues, as they tirelessly serve and support our in-need patrons. It’s truly inspiring to witness the positive impact they make in their lives on a daily basis.

Beyond our mission-driven approach, the food at JBJ Soul Kitchen is simply exceptional. The commitment to serving amazing quality dishes goes hand in hand with our larger goal of making a genuine difference in people’s lives. The delicious food, combined with our commitment to making a positive difference, is what makes JBJ Soul Kitchen such a unique and special place to visit.

When encouraging someone to dine in or volunteer at JBJ Soul Kitchen, I usually start by explaining our mission and the incredible quality of food that is offered at a very reasonable suggested donation. This aspect often captures people’s attention and sparks their curiosity. To truly convey the essence of JBJ Soul Kitchen, I invite everyone to experience it firsthand. It’s a place where you can witness the remarkable culture we’ve cultivated, where compassion and community intersect.

So, I encourage everyone to come and dine at JBJ Soul Kitchen because it’s an experience that words can’t fully capture, and it’s something that everyone should have the opportunity to be a part of.

One interesting thing about me that most people probably don’t know is that in my free time, I enjoy exploring and adopting new hobbies to keep myself active and my mind clear. One of my recent passions is racquetball. After a day at work, I find great joy and balance in playing racquetball. It’s a sport that challenges me physically and mentally, providing a refreshing break from my daily routine. Engaging in this hobby has been a wonderful addition to my life, allowing me to stay active and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
