April is volunteer appreciation month

Volunteer Appreciation Week April 21-27

As a non-profit organization serving DuPage and Kane counties, we rely on the kindness and commitment of nearly 800 volunteers to serve our seniors.

In 2023 our volunteers helped us provide:

500,000+ Home Delivered Meals
300,000+ Wellness Checks
7,000+ Friendly Phone Call Hours
400+ Home & Yard Services

Volunteers range from school-age children creating crafts to retired seniors delivering meals and every age in between.
