Giving Opportunities

As a private, not-for-profit corporation that operates without public funding and is staffed by volunteers for meal delivery, Community Meals, Inc. depends on the generous financial support of our donors to carry out our vital mission. Until the last several years, about 90% of our clients have been able to afford the cost of our meals which we have endeavored to keep as low as possible. The remaining clients have been provided with partially-subsidized or free meals on the basis of financial need. Donated funds from our faithful base of individuals, businesses, religious and civic organizations, social service groups, and small foundations are the sole source of these subsidies. These funds have also aided our constant efforts to keep meal costs affordable for our full-pay clients as client meal charges do not fully cover the cost of providing our service..
In recent years, CMI's subsidized client base has grown considerably, creating an ongoing budgetary challenge to our organization. Nearly 40% of the meals we deliver are now to subsidized clients, most of them paying nothing at all.
You can help us meet this goal and continue to provide a crucial service to our home-bound elderly and infirm clients through your financial support in the form of direct donations, corporate matching funds, gifts-in-kind and more. Our communities depend on it.
