Our vision is to elevate awareness of the importance of healthy seniors in the Palo Alto area and beyond by connecting people of all ages in a positive, visible way to a world built on healthy food for seniors. We believe in compassion, personal health, equity, and equality for seniors, and in reducing the reality of seniors being food insecure. To help create a more health-centric society, including nutrition and positive mental health, to alleviate isolation and depression. We will do this by continuing to provide healthy meals, resources, and a warm environment each weekday. Over time, we aim to serve more seniors in more locations while building alliances with people and programs that further our mission. We will also engage and energize Palo Alto residents to support and volunteer for senior needs, causes, and projects.
