Congregate Meals

Through its Friendship Cafes, Piedmont Senior Resources provides one nutritious meal a week to senior citizens in a group setting who are not able to obtain a well-balanced diet, due to physical, social, or financial limitations. In conjunction with the meal, weekly activities and services are provided in a group setting at a local community or senior citizen center. Friendship Cafes are provided in each of the localities PSR serves. |
