Gratitude in Action: Celebrating the Community That Nourishes Together

As we move into this season of gratitude, our hearts are full. Every meal we prepare and deliver represents care, connection, and compassion made possible by our incredible community.

At Nourish Meals on Wheels, we see gratitude in action every day through the people and partnerships that make our mission possible.

Volunteers and Family Legacies

Each weekday, nearly 800 meals are prepared and delivered with care. Many families share this experience together, passing the spirit of service and compassion to the next generation. Whether helping in the kitchen, delivering meals, packing holiday gifts, or crafting handmade tray favors, your kindness brightens every moment.

Donors and Supporters

Your generosity brings comfort, friendship, and nourishment to older adults across South Metro Denver. You help ensure every client receives more than a meal — they receive hope and human connection.

Adopt-a-Route Partners

We are grateful for the many groups and organizations that have adopted delivery routes and serve our neighbors each week. From service clubs and corporate teams to faith communities and day programs, you bring consistency, compassion, and friendship to every doorstep. Your commitment helps ensure each client is greeted by a caring face they know and trust.

Food Drives and Local Businesses

From school classrooms to grocery stores and office teams, your creative drives and donations help make sure no senior faces hunger or isolation alone.

The Personal Touches That Make Nourish Unique

From birthday cards and holiday gifts to wellness checks and special treats, we make sure our clients know they are remembered. Our volunteers deliver more than food, they deliver friendship and peace of mind.

Community Partnerships That Strengthen Our Mission

Collaborations with local healthcare providers, cities, schools, and civic organizations help us connect clients to resources, strengthen independence, and expand our impact.

Looking Ahead: Colorado Gives Day

As we give thanks, we also look ahead to Colorado Gives Day on Tuesday, December 9. Early giving begins November 1, and all donations made starting today count toward our total.

Colorado Gives Day is the biggest 24-hour giving movement in the state and one of the most successful in the nation. In 2024, more than $54 million was raised to support Colorado nonprofits. Since 2010, the Colorado Gives Foundation, with presenting sponsor FirstBank, has helped raise over half a billion dollars for local organizations like Nourish Meals on Wheels.

🌟 New This Year! The Colorado Gives Foundation is offering a $250,000 Recurring Match Prize. All new monthly gifts set up between Nov. 1 and Dec. 9 will be matched up to $100, with $250,000 available across all participating nonprofits.

Your support keeps kindness moving through our community today, tomorrow, and throughout the year.
