Project Angel Food's mission is to nourish people debilitated by critical illnesses. We believe they should not also suffer the ravages of hunger and malnutrition, which can lead to catastrophic deterioration in their already fragile health.
The men, women and children we serve are too sick to go to a grocery store or food bank, let alone stand at a stove to cook a healthy meal. With our delicious, nutrient-packed meals delivered directly to their homes at the ready, they can better focus on healing with strength and dignity.
We operate with the knowledge that food is medicine so we medically tailor our recipes and design our freshly-cooked meals to offer optimum benefits: overall improved health, efficacy of vital medications, prevention of secondary illnesses, optimum body weight and more.
Our client services and nutrition services teams assist clients in accessing other health resources and help them better understand the positive impact of healthy eating in their fight against disease and their overall life. We also provide a friendly ear during one of the most challenging experiences possible.
Loneliness, isolation and fear are common to those struggling with devastating diseases, especially among the underserved and disadvantaged. Our delivery drivers can often be the only personal contact a client experiences during their homebound day, bringing delicious food with a warm smile and kind words of encouragement.
We represent the kindness and compassion of our community, maintaining a strong connection between those who want to help and those who need it most. Our devoted volunteers and generous donors make the miracle that is Project Angel Food happen each and every day.
