Providing meals to friends who could use a little help

Nothing beats giving a home-cooked meal to friends who are facing an illness, death in the family, or perhaps celebrating a new baby. However, not everyone has the time to do this directly, nor do we know the family's food preferences. Through the Depot Street Good Neighbor program, friends contribute to a fund we set up for the family. The recipient can then choose what meals they want and when they want them, and the Depot Street staff takes care of the rest.

How does it work?

Anyone can contribute online (or in the store if they prefer) to a Good Neighbor fund. The Depot Street staff notifies the recipient with a card acknowledging the contributors and the current menu. The recipient chooses meals from the Depot Street menu and selects a convenient time for pickup. The fund does not have to be spent all at once-- recipients can maintain a balance and come back for more.
