We started the Comida Caliente (Hot Meals) program several years ago to provide vulnerable commnunities in Vieques, Puerto Rico with access to nutritious food through isolation, supermarket closures, and severe food insecurity. We focused on preparing complete and traditional menus, including beans, rice and stew, and delivered to participants who were unable to visit our kitchen. With the help of our volunteers, we served over 1,500 healthy meals during the COVID19 pandemic.
The Comida Caliente program is now expanded to over 200 meals each week in collaboration with our partner organization, COREFI. Check out the COREFI TE ALIMENTA program!
