As Thanksgiving Day approaches, thousands of households in New York City will be receiving a helping hand from God's Love We Deliver, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing medically tailored meals to those in need.
For over 40 years, God's Love We Deliver has been serving up more than just traditional holiday fare. Their mission is simple: to deliver food that not only satisfies hunger but also nourishes body and soul. With the help of over 20,000 volunteers, they will be delivering an astonishing 12,500 crustless pumpkin pies, 8,333 pounds of turkey, and 7,100 pounds of side vegetables to households across the city.
But God's Love We Deliver is no ordinary food bank. Their meals are designed to meet the specific needs of individuals with serious medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease, and Alzheimer's Disease. Each meal is carefully tailored by a team of registered dietitians to ensure that it is both nutritious and safe for the client.
The organization's commitment to providing medically tailored meals has been recognized by major supporters, including fashion designer Michael Kors, who sits on the Board of Directors and has also been a long-time partner and supporter. In an interview with Forbes, Kors explained that he was drawn to God's Love We Deliver because of its "concrete solution" to addressing the needs of those in need. He described his own experience delivering meals to a client who was struggling with her illness, saying that seeing the joy on her face as she devoured her meal was a truly transformative moment.
As God's Love We Deliver celebrates 40 years of service, they are also embarking on an ambitious $40 million capital campaign to expand their operations and meet growing demand. The new 30,000-square-foot meal distribution center in Brooklyn will house the organization's packaging and delivery operations, allowing them to serve even more clients.
On Thanksgiving Day, God's Love We Deliver will be delivering thousands of meals to households across New York City, each one a testament to the power of food to bring people together and nourish body and soul. As one volunteer noted, "Every client speaks about how much they love their volunteers," highlighting the organization's commitment to building relationships with those in need.
In an era where food banks are increasingly important, God's Love We Deliver stands out for its focus on medically tailored meals that not only address hunger but also provide a vital lifeline for individuals struggling with serious medical conditions. As Michael Kors noted, "The backbone of our organization is the volunteers," and it is clear that this commitment to community and compassion will continue to drive God's Love We Deliver forward in the years to come.
