Friends in the fashion industry who are helping us rise to the challenges of COVID-19

Our friends in the fashion industry have been by our side since the very first days of God’s Love We Deliver . Since then, they have helped us cook-and home deliver medically tailored meals throughout our 35 year history. During this next challenging period, these friends have once more been particularly helpful and generous, enabling us to continue to be there for our clients throughout the coronavirus pandemic, which has seen more New Yorkers reach out to us for help than ever before.

Here are some friends from the industry who have donated to help us continue to deliver:

She is with us during the coronavirus pandemic as well. Until April 15th 20% of all proceeds from the home décor and tabletop and bar categories are being donated to God’s Love We Deliver to support our efforts during the coronavirus pandemic.
