FREE FOOD PROGRAMS

As part of our mission to improve life through food, we also provide free food and classes to community members in need. We believe in the spirit of generosity and that no member of our community should go without access to healthy food. As such, we have a number of programs that help provide food and education to community members in need.

  • UPCOMING CASSEROLES

    October 30 - Broccoli Mac & Cheese Casserole
    November 6     - Ham, Egg & Cheese Bake
    November 13     - Tuna Noodle Casserole
    November 20     - Turkey & Stuffing Casserole
    December 3     - Shepherd's Pie

    Convivium’s Community Casserole program provides free, wholesome meals that are available each week for pick up or delivery.

    Each week, a dedicated group of volunteers makes, bakes and distributes 250 free casseroles to community members in need.
    ​
    Since September 2020, we have distributed more than 45,000 casseroles to families right here in our community!

    This program is made possible through community support. Generous donations (of time and money) by organizations and individuals have helped meet the need.
