Newly Added Food Programs

Loaves & Fishes is proud to be the new food and service provider for Meals on Wheels, Medically Tailored Meals, and the Jerry Larson FoodBasket.

Meals on Wheels

Meals on Wheels delivers fresh, nutritious meals straight to clients' homes, along with a friendly visit and a wellness check during delivery. Our meals meet one-third of the daily nutritional requirements for older adults. Clients can receive up to seven frozen meals weekly or one hot meal delivered daily. To qualify, clients must be 60 years of age or older, who – due to illness or disability – cannot buy food or cook meals for themselves, and who do not have someone to purchase food or cook meals for them on a consistent basis.

If you are a current client with questions, please contact Meals on Wheels at 408-961-9870 or MOW@loavesfishes.org. Unfortunately, we are not accepting new clients at this time, but please check back!


Medically Tailored Meals

Medically Tailored Food and Nutrition services are provided to Medi-Cal clients with chronic health conditions or who have recently been discharged from the hospital. Santa Clara Family Health Plan refers clients for a variety of services, including Medically Tailored Meals, Medically Tailored Groceries, or Nutrition Education. These "Food is Medicine" services aim for better health outcomes, improved client satisfaction, and ultimately lower healthcare costs. Our Registered Dieticians approve the meals and groceries and provide the nutrition assessments and education.

For more information about Medically Tailored Meals services, please contact 408.961.9880 or MTM@loavesfishes.org.


Jerry Larson FoodBasket

Preparing affordable, nutritious meals can be a challenge for people living with HIV/AIDS. The Jerry Larson FoodBasket helps support these individuals and their families by providing food assistance. Clients can shop twice a month and choose from an array of fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, canned and packaged goods, and frozen meat. 

Home-delivered meals are available for homebound clients. Eligibility is based on income level and need.

For more information, about the Jerry Larson FoodBasket and the services available, please contact 408.380.8620 or FB@loavesfishes.org.
