Delivering Needed Food to Beloved Seniors

On Saturday, May 17, of this past weekend, HSP had its monthly Senior Delivery Day! One day each month, HSP volunteers prepare and deliver 100 pounds of groceries, a mixture of fresh fruit and vegetables, non-perishables, and frozen meat to the 123 beloved seniors in the Senior Citizen Project. These groceries will provide nutritional and great-tasting food that will last the entire month for seniors who would not otherwise be able to afford these groceries.


            HSP would like to thank all of the volunteers who helped to make this delivery day another success. We offer our gratitude to the individuals who helped to sort the fresh produce on Friday, responding to our call for volunteers on such short notice. We would also like to recognize the volunteers who helped by loading the cars and delivering the food to our seniors. This made the Saturday delivery a success as another fun day of delivering the food. We can’t do it without all of the help we receive from our past and present wonderful volunteers!

           HSP serves seniors in DuPage and Kane counties. If you or anyone you know is interested in volunteering, please don’t hesitate to contact us at (630) 221-8340 or hsp@humanitarianservice.org
