AID FOR FRIENDS
has a long and proud history of providing FREE home-cooked meals to the
isolated homebound. Along
with dinners, we can often provide a breakfast meal through the
generosity of volunteer groups. A
breakfast bag consists of 4 or 5 non-perishable items such as: *miniature cereal
boxes
*tea bags, instant coffee *juice
cartons
*boxes of raisins *oatmeal packets
*pudding or fruit cups
*cereal bars/granola bars
*packs of peanut butter crackers
Please
DON’T include any of the
following: *fresh fruit
*muffins or danish *applesauce cups with aluminum tops (which can be easily punctured) Please be sure to use a clear
plastic bag so we can see the contents.
Because some shut-ins can’t eat certain foods, we need to see
what we’re sending to them. Most importantly,
please enclose a hand-made card, picture or note letting the shut-ins
know they are thought of. You
can sign your name and the name of your school or Youth Group. (Our
client/friends love to hang these notes on their refrigerators!) Bags
can be sealed with a twist-tie or colored ribbon.
We rely on
volunteers to help support our Breakfast Bag Program.
Our shut-ins love these little treats and it encourages them to
eat the most important meal of the day—breakfast! If
you have any questions, please call Jeannie Feighan at (215) 464-2224
