Home Delivery: Food For Free
By Food For Free
Food For Free's Home Delivery program brings food to low-income Cambridge residents who live alone or who cannot access food pantries due to illness or disability.
This is an ongoing program.
The Home Delivery Program will deliver food non-perishable food weekly to those that sign up!
Ages: Adults.
Cambridge residents only.
Applicants must live in Cambridge, and because of a disability or impairment, be unable to use existing food pantries. Applicants must qualify as low-income under HUD guidelines ($34,350 per year for one person). Applicants must have their health care provider fill out a portion of the application.
Please keep in mind, this program is for people that live alone. It is targeted for people who not only cannot access food pantries due to disability or illness, but who also don't have a partner, family member, or friend who could do that.

Additional information
We deliver about 38-40 pounds of food, including fresh produce, twice per month. Eligible clients are either seniors and/or people with disabilities who are unable to access traditional food pantries due to their illness or disability. Home Delivery brings groceries to our clients, so that the recipients can cook their own
