Prepare hot meals for homeless women and children

Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Sarah’s Hope depends on volunteers to bring in home-cooked dinners and fresh lunches for its residents. Meal donors can choose to either drop off the meal in advance or stay to serve it to shelter residents if there is availability. We typically serve 30 adults and 45 children at dinner, and for lunches we usually have 20 adults and 20 children.
Because our kitchen and oven are both small, we have volunteers prepare the food either at home or at their church or school, and then bring the meals in to Sarah's Hope (we can reheat on-site if needed). Volunteers can cook and donate food several ways:

• Schedule a day to cook a hot meal (and possibly serve too!)
• Donate cooked casseroles that can be frozen and used for either inclement weather or when we don’t have volunteers
• Bake some delicious desserts to go with our donated dinners
• Donate healthy treats for our after-school snack time

You can either use your own recipes or take advantage of our cooking guide that includes sample recipes. This is a great project for an individual, family, youth group, social club, or other mid-large group of volunteers! Meals can be donated one time, weekly, monthly, or quarterly.
