Open Hand provides healthy, home-delivered meals combined with nutrition education, counseling and therapy for home bound seniors and individuals struggling with a chronic, critical or terminal illness. The organization helps people prevent or better manage chronic disease and reinforces the connection between knowledgeable food choices and improved quality of life.
As volunteers, Cucine LUBE employees, friends and family members prepared and packaged over 1,600 meals and delivered them to Open Hand's meal recipients. LUBE found the experience to be equally humbling and rewarding. The LUBE team looks forward to working with Open Hand in the future, serving as a proud sponsor of their upcoming 'Party in the Kitchen' fundraiser, scheduled for October 23, 2008.
