We couldn't close out without recognizing the founding mothers of Loaves & Fishes and Friendship Trays - Virginia Sampson and Ann Elliot. In 1975 and 1976 respectively, each of these women saw a need in our community and promptly went to work to solve it - by providing access to healthy food- whether groceries or meals. Their work started small, with a group of friends and churches pitching in to help. Six meals delivered in one neighborhood gave birth to Friendship Trays. Handing out groceries from a small pantry at Holy Comforter Episcopal Church gave birth to Loaves & Fishes. Today, these two organizations are one, working together to provide groceries, meals and hope to nearly 100,000 individuals throughout Mecklenburg Co. Thank you Ann and Virginia, we are so grateful for your legacy of love and hope.

You can help fight the loneliness, isolation and hunger of our senior neighbors. As the primary Meals on Wheels program in Mecklenburg Co., Loaves & Fishes/Friendship Trays delivers nutritious meals every weekday to those unable to prepare a meal for themselves. But rising food prices have resulted in a 7% increase in the cost of providing these meals. Your donation will provide meals for more seniors, allowing them to be where they want to be...at home.

When the pandemic forced our volunteers to stay home, officers from CMPD Metro and South Division came to our rescue. For the last two years they have been delivering Friendship Trays meals to our senior neighbors, making sure no one went hungry.
Officers shared how much they enjoy serving their own community, having the chance to meet people they wouldn’t have before and making people smile!

50 years ago today, President Nixon signed into law a measure that amended the Older Americans Act by establishing a national nutrition program for seniors. Today, Meals on Wheels programs such as Loaves & Fishes/Friendship Trays deliver healthy, nutritious meals to seniors at risk of hunger and isolation. But it's so much more than a meal - friendly, smiling volunteers delivering human connection, allowing our senior neighbors to be where they want to be...at home. Join us in caring for our senior neighbors with a gift to Loaves & Fishes/Friendship Trays today: https://bit.ly/3JkRAO3

We are so grateful to our volunteers who not only give of their time but also their gas to make sure meals are delivered daily to our senior neighbors. WSOC-TV
Volunteer drivers adjust to continue helping others as gas hovers above $4 a gallon “I don’t drive as much as I used to.”
