Caring for Friends offers a number of programs to fulfill our mission.
Programs
Meals for homebound seniors, veterans, people with disabilities
Snack bags and food for people facing homelessness
Food for families and individuals in their communities
Meals for Homebound Clients
At the core of what we do, volunteers make weekly home visits to deliver meals and spend time with seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and other isolated homebound friends.
We receive thousands of pounds of food from our generous donors and partners, as well as through food drives. The shelf-stable, fresh food, and ready-to-heat meals are shared with food pantries, shelters, places of worship, and other organizations in underserved communities. We make sure nothing goes to waste while staying true to our mission.
Meals, such as sandwiches and soups, and snack bags are prepared by individual or group volunteers in our warehouse or at their location and distributed to people living on the streets and in shelters.
