History

Our Community

Volunteers

Without the help of our volunteers — more than 20,000 strong every year — we simply would not be able to cook and deliver over 80,000 delicious and nutritious meals each week to our neighbors in need. Volunteers work in the kitchen, deliver meals and work in meal packaging, work in our office and help out with special events.

Golden Heart Society

Members of the Golden Heart Society provide critical program support helping to ensure that no person faces the dual crises of hunger and severe illness.

Legacy Society

Planned Gifts provide the resources that create extraordinary opportunities and will help God's Love We Deliver in the future. Generous individuals who include God's Love in their estate plans are invited to join our Legacy Society.

Corporations & Foundations

God's Love We Deliver receives financial support from corporations and foundations, both local and national. Grants from foundation and corporate supporters comprise 14% of our annual budget. God's Love is fortunate to count more than 200 corporate and foundation friends among our committed donors.

Kitchen Table

Monthly donations provide donors with an easy, affordable way to support God’s Love, while ensuring a steady source of good nutrition, hope and dignity for the men, women and families who depend on our meals. God’s Love recognizes the sustained commitment and loyalty of our monthly donors through membership in our Kitchen Cabinet.
