HOMESTEAD Nutrition Project is a non-profit organization that provides meals to individuals 60 years or older. We strive to make delicious and nutritious meals to help keep seniors healthy so that they can continue living an independent life. We offer meals three different ways. We offer a congregate meal other wise known as a dine-in setting, we offer a pick-up meal option, and for those who are home bound, they can call our office and discuss a home delivered meal option. The seniors in the local community rely on these meals to stay healthy - mentally and physically. The work that you would do within this program would be satisfying, very rewarding and much appreciated by those in your local community.
