Have access to a vehicle? Volunteer to deliver meals to seniors!

Author: Jenny Huang


Staff and volunteers at Self Help for the Elderly at South Sunset Playground have really stepped up since the Shelter in Place Order was put in place, rapidly shifting from a congregate meal site for mostly monolingual Chinese seniors to a hub for home meal deliveries. SHE at South Sunset Playground is currently operating five days a week providing seven meals a week to clients in the Sunset. Across their three sites, SHE is delivering over 20,000 meals a week!
