Food feeds the soul and when done with a friendly smile can really brighten up someone's day. You can make a difference in the health and well-being of our Minneapolis seniors by providing a nutritious meal delivered right to their door step. Meals can be picked up at CES between 11:00am-11:30 and meal delivery normally takes about an hour. Deliver once a month, once a week or as much as 3x a week. You can choose to deliver to the same route each time or take any route that is open. We need your help. Please consider joining our team and support our seniors! If you want to do a ride-a-long to see what it is all about we are happy to set up a delivery time with a seasoned volunteer. To learn more - lvelez@cesmn.org

Program Overview: Home Delivery is designed for our neighbors primarily in the Phillips area who are low income and unable to physically visit the food market at CES. Food is delivered free of charge, once a month. The food is hand selected based on the neighbor’s needs and consists of canned and boxed non-perishables, produce, meat, eggs and milk when available. In this collaborative program, CES offers neighbors the food, and the volunteer power to "shop" for our neighbors in the food pantry. The SoS Program provides additional support to isolated seniors and establishes an increased level of engagement with our neighbors, the surrounding community and for volunteers.
