It's 6:00 p.m. and Karen glances at her watch, exhaustion setting in after a day of caring for her dying mother. She heads wearily to the kitchen, anticipating another bowl of cold cereal for dinner, when she hears a car in the driveway. With a sigh of relief she sees that Dinners with Love has arrived with a meal from her mother's favorite restaurant in town.
This scenario plays out every day in homes across the country, except for most hospice patients and their families the day does not end with a warm, delicious meal donated by a local restaurant through the Dinners with Love program.
Dinners with Love volunteers delivered more than 2,500 meals to Karen and families like hers in 2016, but there are so many more hospice patients out there who could benefit from the comfort of a warm meal and the support of their community.
That is why we are asking you to help fill their plates. In return, you will fill your heart, knowing that your contribution is going a long way to helping us bring our program to more communities in Vermont and throughout the region.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 between #GivingTuesday (November 29) and December 31. Your gift of $10, $25, $50, or even $100 will spread this simple kindness and lighten the load for hospice patients and their families in Vermont and the region. With your donation, we can forge new partnerships with hospice agencies and restaurants and get even more meals delivered to patients next year. This can only happen with your support.
