We are preparing over 12,000 Thanksgiving meals! Want a meal delivered ? Call the number below!

Thanksgiving is only THREE WEEKS away, and we've been busy prepping for our holiday meal distribution. We are pleased to once again offer free hot meal delivery on Thanksgiving Day, in addition to a hot meal service at the St. Augustine Hunger Center.

The Thanksgiving meal program is possible thanks to the generous support of our partners at Barons Bus and Barons Hockey, as well as contributions from long-time partner Elk & Elk Co. Ltd. and local parishes.

Thanks to everyone who has signed up to volunteer to prepare and deliver meals. If you want to help, consider collecting shelf-stable goods for our FILL THE PANTRY donation opportunity on November 26. Learn more on our website: ccdocle.org/holiday

📣 Effective Immediately 📣
Laketran is offering free rides on Local Routes to make it easier for residents to get to food pantries and grocery stores while SNAP benefits are suspended.

More than 17,000 people in our community — including 6,200 children and 2,510 seniors — will be affected by this temporary suspension, and we don’t want transportation to be a barrier to accessing food.

🍎 Local Routes connect to 30+ food pantries and 11 fresh produce distributions in November.
👵 Seniors 60+ can also get free Dial-a-Ride trips through our Seniors on the GO program by calling 440-354-6100.

We’re proud to stand with our community and do what we can to make sure everyone can get where they need to go.
