Warming House 50th Anniversary Auction

Welcome to the 50th anniversary of the Warming House! The proceeds from this auction will support the Endowment for Warming House Sustainability, established in 2023 as part a year of celebration.

The endowment was created to offer long term sustainability for what we believe to be the oldest student-run soup kitchen in the country. The Warming House addresses the quiet crisis of food insecurity in the Olean area as well as offers St. Bonaventure University students amazing opportunities to learn teamwork and management skills while living the university values on a daily basis.

The Warming House offers meals to the food insecure in the Olean area through promoting nourishment, fellowship and dignity to its guests. We are located at 164 N. Union Street, Olean, NY 14760.
