We are looking for individuals, groups, businesses, restaurants, families, and others to prepare meals for the families staying at Family House.
The Heart of the House Meal Program provides a vital way to extend care and comfort to our families. These guests deeply appreciate a home-cooked meal before heading to the hospital, or upon return from a long day of medical treatments or spending the day at the bedside of a loved one.
Providing a meal keeps families from the added stress of finding a restaurant, relying on vending machines, or having to cook after an emotionally draining day. It allows them a moment to simply sit down, unwind, and recharge.
Here are some ways you can ensure our guests enjoy a nice meal during their stay:
- *Schedule a day and time to come to Family House to prepare a meal on-site.
- *Drop off a meal or have it delivered to Family House.
- *Ask a local restaurant if they can prepare individually packaged meals for our guests.
- *Make grab-and-go bags for lunch.
Our Facilities:
We offer two communal kitchens equipped with everything you need to cook, plus three outdoor barbecue grills. You just need to provide the food you plan to prepare. The number of families varies daily, but you can call closer to your scheduled date to get an accurate guest count.
