About GOD S LOVE WE DELIVER
God's Love We Deliver is a non-sectarian organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of individuals living with severe and chronic illnesses. It provides nutritious, medically tailored meals and comprehensive nutrition education.
Founded in 1985, the organization began when a compassionate woman delivered food on her bicycle to a man dying from AIDS. Since then, it has grown to become the leading provider of such services in the New York City metropolitan area.
The organization's mission is to alleviate hunger and malnutrition among people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer, and other serious illnesses by preparing and delivering high-quality, individually tailored meals to those unable to shop or cook for themselves due to their health conditions.
All services are provided free of charge, without regard to income, ensuring that no one is turned away.

These clients are located across all five boroughs of New York City, as well as Westchester and Nassau Counties in New York, and Hudson County in New Jersey.
The organization employs a team of Registered Dietitian Nutritionists who work closely with clients to design individualized meal plans that meet their specific medical requirements.
This personalized approach ensures that each meal supports the client's health and treatment needs.
Additional Support Services
In addition to meal delivery, God's Love We Deliver offers ongoing nutrition education and counseling to clients, their families, and caregivers.
This holistic support empowers individuals to make informed dietary choices that enhance their health and quality of life.
The organization also provides services to the children and senior caregivers of its clients, recognizing that illness affects the entire family.
