Saint Paul's Elder Outreach and Team Generous Hearts

For the past couple of months, as the coronavirus crisis worsened, Saint Paul's Elder Outreach Director Vo Robert, aided by several wonderful volunteers, has continued to deliver emergency food, household, and personal care items, as well as pet food and supplies, to isolated at-risk seniors in the City of Worcester, 5-6-7 days per week. While Vo and Saint Paul's Elder Outreach partners with a number of food pantries in Worcester, food panties, as great as they are, are unable to provide foods for special diets ( diabetes, renal, heart, gluten - free diets for example ) or important foods such as mustard, mayo, ketchup, jar pasta sauce, pancake mix that can be made with just water, etc.

A fantastic group stepped up to help! Team Generous Heart has donated these kinds of items a number of times to Saint Paul's Elder Outreach! "We're constantly searching for ways to meet the needs of all the isolated seniors we assist, and being able to help those with special diets, and provide condiments so the food we deliver tastes great, is so vital to what we're doing!" Robert says.

"Team Generous Hearts has volunteered to donate whatever we need several times, I've provided them with a list of some of our most pressing needs, and they have come through each time." Robert continues. "They are truly helping so many seniors here during this most difficult time, and we're so appreciative!"
