Write a Note to an Isolated Elderly New Yorker
Even in a city of over 8 million, thousands of frail aged New Yorkers live in almost complete isolation.
Most of Citymeals’ meal recipients live alone — they have outlived spouses, friends, family and sometimes even children. Of the 18,000 homebound elderly we serve, 40% rarely or never leave their homes and 1 in 10 have virtually no interaction with the outside world other than the person who delivers their meals.
With each meal, we make sure to deliver a friendly smile and a kind word. But with your help — we can do more. Please share a few caring words with a lonely older New Yorker today, and we’ll hand‑deliver your message along with a nourishing meal.
A kind word for a frail aged neighbor goes a long way. Help turn a normal day into a special one — write a note today.
