ALA’s mission is to enrich the Los Angeles community by providing seniors with affordable housing, services and linkages to supportive services. ALA was founded on the premise that all seniors, regardless of their race, sexual orientation, ethnicity, socio-economic background, or health status, deserve community support and real options to live an independent and productive life.

Project Open Hand is a nonprofit organization that provides meals with love to seniors and the critically ill. Every day, we prepare 2,500 nutritious meals and provide 200 bags of healthy groceries to help sustain our clients as they battle serious illnesses, isolation, or the health challenges of old age. We serve San Francisco and Alameda Counties, engaging more than 125 volunteers every day to nourish our community.

We create peace of mind by providing compassionate care and support to those who need us.   People of all ages turn to Avow for various kinds of support. As a result, we cast our mission statement to define our 'customers' as "those who need us;" similarly, we defined the universal service we provide as "creating peace of mind." Some people we help are terminally ill, others are grieving. Some need education on how to be a compassionate caregiver. Some are children working through a loss.  Because there is such variety in our clients and why they turn to us, we think our mission statement explains what we universally work to provide: peace of mind.

Our mission is to support the independence and well-being of seniors. Meals-on-Wheels Greater San Diego is committed to providing healthy meals to homebound seniors so that no senior goes hungry. We strive, as well, to reduce the isolation experienced by so many elderly. Our meals are delivered to seniors' homes by volunteers. Frequently the volunteer may be the only person the senior sees all day, providing human contact and a safety net, particularly for those seniors living alone. We serve San Diego County's diverse and growing senior population by providing healthy, well-balanced meal menus providing our seniors variety as well as choice while they receive the nutrition they need to stay healthy.
