MEAL TRAIN
Thank you for providing a nutritious supper for our shelter guests! You can sign-up through Meal Train. Just click on the evening you want, create a brief profile (one-time only) and sign up for an evening.
Helping Hands serves supper every night. Here’s what our meal providers need to know:
​
-
Bring enough for 50 people. More is always welcome as our numbers have grown.
-
Arrive between 5:45 and 6 p.m. at the kitchen door. If you don't know where the kitchen door is, let someone at the double doors know you have arrived, and they can direct you. Food can be delivered, or groups can stay and serve.
-
Choose meals that have nutritional value. We want to serve hearty meals that include protein, grains, and vegetables/fruits. Please do not bring meals that are entirely “junk” foods (pizza or hot dogs with potato chips, etc.). If you would like help choosing a menu, we are happy to share ideas and suggestions.
