Poppi's Kitchen

Ten POPPI’S KITCHEN feeding centers provide hot, homemade, healthy meals to approximately 600 hungry and underprivileged children each week in the urban slums of Jakarta and in rural villages on the remote islands of Indonesia. 

In most locations, the Smiths partner with local churches that sponsor a pre-school, kindergarten or elementary school which serves as the setting for POPPI’S KITCHEN outreach ministries.  

The Smiths holistic ministry aims to break the cycle of poverty by combining nutritious food, Biblical worship, and quality education.  Poppi says, “it is ministry to the head, heart and stomach—i.e. education, spirituality, and physical wellness.”  

Every POPPI’S KITCHEN location begins with chapel (prayer, praise, worship, and a devotional), then the meal, and finally school.  This format which the Lord gave to Poppi is transforming Indonesia, one child at a time.
