Meal Recipient Stories
Last year, our family of donors and friends helped Citymeals deliver nearly 2 million nutritious meals to 17,000 frail aged in every borough of New York City.
While we are proud of these numbers, it’s stories about our meal recipients that truly chronicle our success. Take a moment to meet a few elderly homebound neighbors who are living independent lives thanks to Citymeals and generous people like you.
Jack and Marian
Citymeals and the New York Mets teamed up to deliver meals to homebound elderly living in Queens. One couple in particular stood out to all of us.
Santia and Ramonita
Santia, a 67-year-old disabled Brooklyn woman with an ailing mother recently wrote us a letter. Due to health challenges, both mother and daughter rely on Citymeals.
