Meal donation

Your gift empowers independently owned restaurants to feed the need in their communities. Our program is powered by the kindness and compassion of others and no gift is too BIG or too small. Just $10 secures a meal prepared with purpose & love and every dollar donated goes directly to the delivery of nourishing and balanced meals to our neighbors who need them. 

Two in five households in RI have difficulty affording adequate food. This is higher than any levels before the pandemic in 2020.

Food insecurity is up 31% over 2023 rates, and increasing costs of food, rent, utilities, transportation and other basic necessities suggest this trend won't improve any time soon.

During a regular school day, 62,000 children participate in free or reduced school meal programs - and we consistently hear from school administrators and nurses that these are often the only balanced meal they take in daily.

Sixty-six percent (66%) of households that visit food pantries include a child or senior.
