We believe that client choice—members choosing the items they want—enhances a person’s dignity while it addresses individual preferences for food. Our food is top-quality and we ensure that our members are offered meats, cereals, fresh produce, eggs, milk, coffee, and dessert every week. But the best and most important thing this great team of volunteers delivers is the joyful spirit of St. Francis. For many, the weekly visits of our volunteers are the most rewarding and meaningful part of our ministry.
