This past year, Little Brothers-Friends of the Elderly (LBFE), celebrated 32 years of establishing friendships with isolated older adults in San Francisco. Throughout the pandemic, our community persevered, added new virtual programs, and friendships blossomed. 

LBFE will be delivering Thanksgiving meals to over 350 isolated older adults in San Francisco. Volunteers can participate in several ways. 

Deliver meals only between the hours of 10:30am to 12:30pm

Or, deliver meals and do a one hour visit in the home of an LBFE older adult between 10:30am to 12:30pm

Or make phone calls to LBFE’s older adults between the hours of 1:00pm to 2:00pm. 

Some of LBFE’s older adults may accept the meal delivery but opt-in to do a visit over the phone or a video call due to their unease with the ongoing Covid pandemic. The volunteers will need to pass a background check to visit and agree and sign an LBFE attestation form regarding vaccination status.  Volunteers are expected to pick up the holiday meals between 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon in Downtown San Francisco. The in-home visits should be for an hour. Location and other details will be shared once the background check is cleared.

Family and friends are welcome so long as one person in the group has cleared a background check! To visit in person with an older adult, volunteers must agree to LBFE’s Covid policy.
