We are thrilled and honored to announce that Dinners with Love has received a $1,925 grant from the Vermont Community Foundation's Small and Inspiring grant program. The grant will help further our mission of providing free, delivered meals to hospice patients and their families by supporting our expansion in Vermont. Community support and momentum for Dinners with Love has grown tremendously in the past year. Thanks to the hard work of our hospice agency partners and dedicated volunteers, our program is reaching more hospice patients and their families. Since our founding in 2009, Dinners with Love has delivered more than 6,700 meals--2,400 of those were donated in 2016 alone! This year also saw the addition of several new restaurants, our first steps into Bennington County, and, of course, our wonderfully fun gathering, Comfort Food for a Cause. We are excited to partner with hospice agencies and restaurants so that even more Vermont hospice patients and their families can receive meals. Our vision is to offer Dinners with Love in every county in the state. Thank you to the Vermont Community Foundation's Small and Inspiring grant program for your generous support of Dinners with Love! Are you a hospice volunteer, nurse, or staff member who would like to learn more about joining Dinners with Love? We would love to hear from you! |
