Project snapshot
The Shakti Mission’s Serving Our Seniors program is a community- driven initiative providing vegan Caribbean hot meals to low-income elderly residents in Queens, NY. With an increasing demand for these type of meals and no other organizations or city agencies offering them, the mission seeks to fill this gap with volunteer time, financial donations and resources. These bi-weekly meals are provided to 115- 150 seniors, helping them maintain their independence and health.
