Mindful Meals – Feeding America Eastern WI

Mindful Meals, a program by Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin, is designed to break down barriers to food access by offering a dignified, convenient, and discreet solution for individuals and families in need. Utilizing the OrderAhead online platform, participants can select nutritious foods of their choice, eliminating the stigma and limitations of prepackaged food distributions. Through partnerships with trusted local organizations, Mindful Meals provides secure, flexible pickup locations, ensuring that nutritious food is accessible where and when it’s needed most. This program not only addresses food insecurity but also fosters community collaboration to create a future where no one has to choose between essential needs and nourishment.

Dillon Gretzinger, CEO, said, “We are excited to be able to provide this service to our Club families. We are on a mission to ensure all Club families who need meals do not go without. No one should go hungry!”  The Boys & Girls Clubs also provides free snacks and dinner during the school year, Monday – Friday from 3-5pm. The meals are free to all students 18 & under in our community, and they do not need to be Club members to receive a meal. In 2024, the BGCNW provided more than 22,000 meals to youth in our community.
