Board members have the following responsibilities: governance, fundraising and serving as an organizational ambassador.
Our Team
God’s Love We Deliver is the New York City metropolitan area’s leading provider of nutritious, individually-tailored meals to people who are too sick to shop or cook for themselves.
Founded in 1985 when one woman began delivering food on her bicycle to a man dying from AIDS, God’s Love now cooks nearly 13,000 meals each weekday, delivering them to clients living with life-altering illnesses in all five boroughs of New York City, Westchester and Nassau Counties, and Hudson County, New Jersey. All of our services are provided free of charge to our clients, their children and to the senior caregivers of our senior clients, without regard to income, and we have never maintained a waiting list.
God’s Love We Deliver is a non-sectarian organization, providing meals with the strong belief of “food as medicine.” To that end, we employ a team of Registered Dietitian Nutritionists who individually tailor meals to each client’s specific medical requirements. God’s Love provides all services by employing a small but dedicated professional staff and with the critical assistance of 17,000 volunteers annually.
Leadership
The Board of Trustees is a group of dedicated individuals who have served God’s Love We Deliver with distinction through Board membership, volunteerism or philanthropy. Trustee members are responsible for fundraising, lifting the visibility of God’s Love, and providing advice and counsel.
