This week the singer opened his second Soul Kitchen restaurant in New Jersey, where guests can pay by either making a donation toward other peoples meals or by volunteering in the kitchen.
Its all part of Bon Jovis plan to bring attention to hunger and homelessness by opening restaurants where everyone can participate, no matter their income level.
Soul Kitchen just looks like another restaurant, Bon Jovi told CBS News. And you have to understand that those who are in need sometimes dont have that opportunity to go to a restaurant.
The first Soul Kitchen opened in Red Bank, New Jersey, in 2011. This second location is in nearby Toms River, a community hit especially hard by Hurricane Sandy. Itll be part of a one-stop center that helps people apply for health care and nutritional assistance benefits and prepare for jobs in the food industry, the Associated Press reports.
