COREFI TE ALIMENTA

COREFI's Meals for Seniors Delivery Program addresses the nutritional needs of the elderly on the island by providing healthy meals. Many seniors face challenges accessing food due to mobility, resources, or isolation. Each week, we prepare nutritionally balanced meals that consider dietary restrictions. Our trained staff ensures options that are wholesome and tasty. Dedicated volunteers deliver meals to seniors' doorsteps, fostering community and reducing loneliness through friendly interactions. This program aims to support, nourish, and care for every senior, recognizing the vital role of nutrition in their well-being.

Providing comprehensive support services to all members of the Vieques community affected by the challenges of poverty.

 

This is Mr. Garcia. His face lit up with gratitude as he thanked the volunteer and took his Corefi’s meal, nourishing both body and spirit. Jasper stepped back, realizing the impact of this simple service, a vital part of COREFI's mission to connect volunteers and participants.

 

We hold weekly workshops for students ages 9 to 14 on food security, cooking, and community service.

Volunteer with us!

A volunteer is someone who becomes a part of your organization by donating their time and service.

It takes a village

  • The programs that we are working on with our community of elders are not just simply about delivering essential items like adult diapers, meal replacement drinks, and hygiene products, although these are undoubtedly important.

  • These visits held by our dedicated team mean so much more to them. They serve as a reminder that somebody out there truly cares about their well-being and happiness. It's a friendly hand extended, an empathetic ear to listen to their stories, jokes, and even just engage in random conversations that bring a glimmer of joy to their hearts.

Dedicated to those in need

In addition to assisting the sick, elderly, and disabled residents on Vieques, our dedicated COREFI team recognizes the pressing issue of limited access to government help and assistance faced by many in this community. With unwavering determination, we actively engage with the local neighborhoods, reaching out to those who often go unnoticed, ensuring that they receive the support and care they deserve. By prioritizing those in need and working directly within our communities, we strive to uplift and empower individuals who may otherwise be left without aid.
