Groups of up to eight volunteers can prepare Meals of Love in our designated Volunteer Kitchen at the House, following specific guidelines. All volunteers must be over 16 years old or accompanied by a parent.

Wishlist Options

Make sure our families have everything they need to feel at home by collecting gift cards or our most needed items. Utilize our Amazon Wishlist to purchase items to be delivered directly to our door. Your group can also collect items and schedule a drop-off by emailing [email protected].  

Create Kits

Assembling Kits is a great way to engage your volunteer group off-site. You can prepare Snack, Activity, or Toiletry Kits for families so they can easily grab what they need while they’re focusing on the health of their child. Gather the items, pack the kits, write encouraging notes, and deliver them to our house to be available for families!
