Summer Sandwich Program
For many of our neighbors, summer can be just as difficult as stark winters. While school is out, thousands of children lose access to reliable meals. Families, homebound seniors, and individuals who experience homelessness face an even greater food insecurity. This summer, you can help change that in the Sandwich Program or donations that help our volunteers make sandwiches.
Help provide fresh, homemade sandwiches to those who need them most.  Contact Volunteer@caringforfriends.org for information on how you can help. Thank you!

How Can You Help?

Donate
Every dollar you donate will help feed people in need

Food and funds are down and every little bit of donations helps provide food and friendship to homebound, homeless, and hungry friends in our area. There are many ways to provide impact for our neighbors.

  • Feed our waiting list of 760 homebound seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities 
  • We still need 2,500 snack bags for people facing homelessness on the streets and in shelters 
  • Consider a modest monthly donation

Caring Cards
Brighten someone's day with encouraging cards

In everything we do, we strive to provide not just food, but also friendship. Sometimes, this comes in the form of a caring note – a hand-written word of inspiration to brighten someone’s day. We are always in need of caring notes from caring people like you!
