Project Open Hand

Meals & Nutrition · Louisiana · Free

Pioneer in medically tailored meals for seniors and people with serious illness. Worth contacting for homebound seniors, caregivers needing meal-prep relief, or any older adult experiencing food insecurity. Most programs ask for a suggested donation but turn no one away based on inability to pay. Meals on Wheels does daily welfare checks — drivers often spot falls, dehydration, or cognitive changes before family does. Open at no cost to Louisiana seniors and the families supporting them.
