Put the Pot on Wheels.
Help Soup Or Something put a fully equipped mobile kitchen truck into service — built to keep hot meals hot, cold food cold, and our neighbors fed in every county we serve.
Every stage of the build
Cumulative fundraising targets. Each unlocks as we reach it.
Design, engineering & vehicle deposit fund
$25,000Fund the upfitter design and secure the vehicle deposit.
Major progress toward the new truck purchase
$75,000Substantial funding toward acquiring the truck.
Truck acquisition milestone

Custom pantry & temperature-control equipment
$150,000Refrigeration, heated holding, and dry shelving.
Launch equipment, branding & operating reserve
$175,000Wrap, launch, and an operating cushion.
Milestones are cumulative fundraising targets, not promises that each stage can be completed at exactly that dollar amount. The final goal will be confirmed once the vehicle upfitter provides a full written quote.
Built to feed, anywhere.
Base vehicle: a new Isuzu NRR with a 16-ft refrigerated box body and a liftgate (comparable new units advertised around $105,000–$114,000 before custom upfit). Custom upfit by Delivery Concepts or a comparable commercial upfitter:
- Refrigerated storage
- Separate heated meal-holding cabinets
- Dry-food shelving
- Accessible side-serving counter / serving window
- Liftgate
- Digital temperature monitoring
- Full exterior branding wrap
Our mission is to put a properly equipped truck into service, not to buy one particular model year. If a dependable used refrigerated truck becomes available, we may use it and redirect the savings to meals and operations.
We're doing this the right way
Get the upfitter's design and written quote
Before buying the truck, lock in the design and a full written quote.
Submit plans to the county health department
Menu, layout drawing, and base-of-operation plans go to Georgia DPH for mobile food unit review.
Secure a permitted base of operation (commissary)
Georgia requires a commissary for water refill, wastewater, and food prep.
Purchase, upfit, inspect, permit, launch
Buy, customize, pass inspection, get permitted, and hit the street.

Questions, answered
Is my gift to the truck campaign tax-deductible?+
Yes. Soup Or Something Ltd is a 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 35-2614846). You'll receive an IRS-compliant receipt by email.
What if you raise more or less than the goal?+
If we exceed the goal, the extra funds go to launch operations, branding, and an operating reserve. If we fall short, we may purchase a dependable used refrigerated truck and redirect savings to meals and operations. Milestones are targets, not guarantees.
Can my company sponsor the truck wrap?+
Yes. Logo placement, serving-window naming, and the Founding Driver circle ($5,000+) are available. Download the corporate sponsorship prospectus or contact us.
How will the truck be permitted and operated safely?+
We follow Georgia's mobile food unit rules: a permitted commissary base of operation, county health department review, and full inspection before launch. See Our Responsible Path above.
Can I give offline (Zelle, Cash App, check)?+
Yes — and every verified offline gift counts toward the total. Zelle 404-453-4808, Cash App $SouporSomething, or mail a check. We log each in an audit trail.
