With Project Angel Food's delicious, nutrient-packed meals delivered directly to their homes at the ready, they can better focus on healing with strength and dignity. Project Angel Food cooks and delivers over 10,000 free and medically tailored meals every week, including breakfasts for households with children. The funds raised by Eat. Drink. Be An Angel. will go towards supporting the life-affirming work of Project Angel Food.
