Peace Meals
A super easy way to love our neighbors — delivering nutritious meals to local shut-ins right here in our community.
Why it matters
More than a meal.
OSF Peace Meal helps seniors improve their nutrition, stay independent and enjoy a better quality of life through meals, fellowship and connection to the services they need.
For many homebound neighbors, the volunteer at the door may be the only visitor they see that day. When you deliver, you're bringing both a nourishing meal and the reminder that someone cares.

About OSF Peace Meal
OSF HealthCare provides nutritious meals five days a week for seniors age 60 and older in Piatt and surrounding counties. Home delivery is available for those who are homebound due to illness, disability or isolation, and spouses living with a participant are welcome too. A $4 donation per meal is suggested, but no one is turned away.
