Active Partnerships
Meals With Meaning - nonprofit
We have recently partnered with Meals With Meaning, a growing local nonprofit focused on delivering food to the homeless community on Lancaster in Fort Worth, TX. Meals With Meaning is known for generously hosting monthly charity events at the Arlington Life Shelter on Division Street in Arlington, TX. This nonprofit brings in a well-known local chef for each event to prepare meals side by side, with former sous-chef, founder Kirk Oldham, Meals With Meaning aims to get all of their dinners sponsored for the homeless, which provides more resources for the residents at the shelter. If you would like to take part in donating to their cause, or would like to sponsor any events, please contact Meals With Meaning directly.
