Meals From The Heart
Thank you so much for being interested in preparing a meal for guest families!
Offering a home-cooked meal is one of the most important ways we can provide our guest families with the comfort of home, especially after a long day at the hospital. Thanks to our Meals from the Heart Program, nightly dinners are prepared by community groups.
