Serving Hope one Lunch at a time.

Five days a week, our kitchen manager plans and prepares delicious, nutritionally-balanced meals. With the help of numerous dedicated volunteers, we serve between 40 to 60 hot meals daily. No appointment neccessary, no paperwork, no judgment. Just neighbors helping neighbors.

We share midday meals to the needy and under-served population, like seniors on fixed incomes, working families stretched thin, and individuals facing homelessness. In Sussex County, where rural isolation runs deep, we are often the only hot meal many neighbors receive all day.
