WAYS to DONATE
You may donate annually, monthly or on whatever schedule fits in with your charitable giving program. You may also donate in memory of someone who has died or in honor of someone special. We will send a letter of acknowledgment to the family of the person you honored without mention of the amount.
REASONS to DONATE
We need your help to serve the majority of our clients who cannot afford to pay the full cost of their meals. Your support will truly make a difference in the lives of the most vulnerable in our community.
Every $6.00 that you donate provides a nutritious meal, friendly visit and well being check for a homebound neighbor in need.
Just think, for one homebound senior,
• $30 provides a week of hot meals
• $120 provides one month of hot meals
• $360 provides 3 months of hot meals
• $720 provides 6 months of hot meals
