Statewide Interest:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Presently we are serving two hot meals to the Senior Citizens of Miami-Dade County.  In order to service those entities within the State of Florida who may be interested in duplicating our program, a web-site will be created so that information, training and assistance can be offered statewide.

For the elderly, low-income and lonely, meals, recreational, educational programs on weekend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

It is our objective to feed the elderly of our community as well as surrounding communities of Miami-Dade.  In addition to a daily hot meal, we want to provide activities which will make them feel useful and appreciated.  We would also provide education courses for the elderly.  This Seniors feeding center is serving a specific need in the elderly population as it is the only center operating on the weekends.
