Proven through our partnership with the Toledo Lucas County Public Library (TLCPL) and 17 years of experience at SAME Café Denver, So All May Eat (SAME) has created the SAME / Library Partnership Model that converts downtown Library Cafés to SAME Café. We started with SAME Café Toledo, which opened doors in 2022 and have been serving hundreds of meals per week since.


The SAME Café 101 Course is a comprehensive virtual guide designed for anyone interested in learning about SAME Café's unique Participation Model and the mission behind what we do. Whether you're a new volunteer, a community member, or someone passionate about starting a similar Café in your town, this free course offers a deep dive into the principles and operations that make SAME Café special.

SAME’s core value of “Leadership Through Service” expresses itself in many ways, including how SAME thinks about leadership. So All May Eat is the root organization that supports the local Cafés. Leaders are promoted to deeper positions where they support those who are creating community in the local Cafés.
