My delivery angel, Sally, just dropped off dinner for my family and I. This will be our 3rd week on the program. I'm so incredibly grateful for this program and each week I'm amazed at how incredible the food tastes. Thank you to everyone involved in this program. I pray for God's blessings to shower over you all!
Love,

This beautiful group of young men and women helped me and my family while I was going through breast cancer. I have two growing boys, 12 and 13, who eat a lot and only want junk food! However, we fed them this delicious food and they loved it, especially the desserts! I do not know what I would have done without Positive Community Kitchen's support. Best of all, there was enough food left over for the next day!!! PS I always claimed the frittata! No one was allowed to eat it but me!

Dear Kitchen Angels,
How your meals help! Jan is less well and we have been spending much time away in various doctor and medical appointments. Even though his appetite is diminished, how comforting to know there is tasty, healthful food when we get home after yet another long day. So grateful!
PS: Jan especially enjoys the soups and rice/chicken dishes. Thank you!

Dear Chef & Wonderful Food Team,
You brighten my life every Monday when my "angel" brings yummy and healthy food dishes. As a single senior lady, it is too much effort to cook such delicious meals for myself.
Thank you for caring for others.
Many hugs, Joy
You Brighten my LifeJoy

Thank you VERY much for preparing us such lovely meals! The vegetable fritatta was my personal favourite. My husband liked the fish and my kids really enjoyed the noodles and vegetables.
What an amazing gift you are giving to people life myself, fighting stage 4 lung cancer, and while in the midst of chemo. Cooking or even looking at food seems like its own battle. Yet we must eat and eat healthy! So when my husband and kids come home from a busy day I am prepared and i thank you all for that!!
Hugs, Sara

Positive Community Kitchen,
Please accept my profound gratitude for the generosity you have all extended us during this difficult time. When we first started with you, I couldn't imagine that soon your gift of nourishment would become such a life saver. Jan's illness exploded in the last few weeks, leaving little time or energy for anything else. May your program continue to grow.

Dear Chefs and Angels,
I want to thank you for the beautiful, healthy, gourmet meal that was provided to me and my family last week. Last week was our first week to experience your food. When I received my bag it felt like Christmas as I pulled out each container. I literally cried while looking at all the wonderful food. We put the food on our dinner plates and we commented that it felt like we were in a fine dining restaurant eating gourmet food!
Your food not only blessed us to have a wonderful cook-free, greasy-free dinner, we were able to use the left overs the next day (Yes, another day without cooking!). By the way, while I am writing this I am eating your apple cabbage salad. Yummy!
We recently moved to Eugene shortly before my diagnosis, so my circle of friends is small. Your love and help means so much to me. It helps me in soooooo many ways, It is so nice to not have to cook dinner or eat my daily ham sandwiches. It is especially nice to not have to eat fast food on the nights I don't have the energy to cook! I am so sick of pizza, Chinese, and greasy burgers!!!
You all are awesome and are angels in disguise! Thank you so, so much!
