Help us change the world for someone who is homebound - one meal at a time.
Join us today and begin by bringing a meal to someone like Dolores. We began serving Miss Dolores about a year ago when a neighbor called about her - concerned that she wasn’t eating properly. With no family in the area, widowed and in her 80's, Dolores found it difficult to get enough nourishment each day and her health was failing. Upon enrollment she shared how she stretched a can of soup for lunch and dinner sometimes if she wasn't able to prepare something. Now she eagerly looks forward to the knock on the door by the Volunteer with her meal - "Oh my - chicken, vegetables, a banana and cookies? My favorites!” We have many more stories just like that of Dolores. And many more people in our local community who need what a good meal delivered by a friendly face can bring them. That's the story behind our saying "A meal and so much more…" So come join us and see how 2 hours a week can make a world of difference in someone's life.
