Caring For Friends

Our Mission

To provide food and friendship to seniors, kids, and adults
in the 5-county Philadelphia region.

Caring for Friends was founded on the premise that no one should be hungry or alone in a world of caring people.

Many know the physical and mental toll that hunger has on people. But most don’t know that loneliness can increase the chance of dementia, depression and heart disease.

To fight both, we deliver food + friendship to seniors, veterans, and those with disabilities by bringing a week’s worth of meals and visiting with our clients. We also make monthly calls to check in and see how clients are doing.

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.
