Our fourth annual Stone Soup event happened on March 15, 2016. It was held in downtown Winnipeg at Manitoba Hydro Place during the lunch hour. We raised thousands of dollars in support of nutrition programs for Manitoba children!

At this fundraiser, a dozen chefs prepared tasty soup in support of nutrition programs in schools. All funds raised at the event went directly to breakfast, snack, and lunch programs in Manitoba schools.

The 12 amazing chefs for our 2016 event were from:

Irene Nordheim was the emcee for the event. A panel of judges chose their favourite soups at the event. Thank you to our emcee and panel of celebrity judges:
