Meal Delivery
Since 1972, UCOM has been a centralized outreach for our faith partners to deliver meals to aging seniors living independently. We serve as a drop site for Aging True.
We want our aging seniors to remain independent as long as they desire and as possible.

Batch Meal preparation classes
Changing "Access" one meal at a time
Weekly meal prep classes
Residents of selected apartment complexes work together to prepare nutritious meals they take home.
Meals for neighbors
Extra meals are delivered to mobility-limited and homebound seniors in the same community with a focus on residents on wait lists or Meal Delivery programs.
How It Works: Seniors gather weekly for guided meal prep sessions on-site of their apartment complex in their common room. Participants prepare meals together led by a trained UCOM staff member. Each participant will make extra meals for neighbors in need. Volunteer help wiht meal delivery and wellness check-ins.
Who Makes this possible: Faith & Coorporate partners who commit to volunteerism, collaboration, and outreach on a scheduled basis. And the incredible strategic investment from Baptist Health!
With collaboration, cooridnation, and the willingness to roll up our sleeves - we solve insecurity by simply being a good neighbor.
