Dinners To Go
DRIVE THROUGH STYLE DINNERS FOR A CAUSE
The corona virus pandemic led to the closure of many local programs and facilities that typically serve hot meals to those in need. During this time (when our business was on hold), we created a self-sustaining program that would provide dinners to those most at risk in our community (seniors, low income, families that are temporarily out of work, and even the homeless).
Our Dinners To Go are drive-through style meals, served from north side of Cornerstone Church in Brighton every Wednesday evening. The meals, which will continue throughout the summer, are served in two parts:
-
4:00-5:00 FREE Meals to those in need (first come, first serve)
-
5:00-6:00 RESERVATION ONLY Dinners by Donation* Pre-order meals and learn more here
*Donation basket will be available at pick-up. We are fully volunteering our time toward this cause, and are not paying ourselves or our business one penny. 100% of your donations (after food costs) will be used to provide free meals to those in need, including those who come through our dinner line and are unable to give, the homeless, front line workers, and many home-bound seniors who receive delivered meals thanks to to the generosity of a few amazing volunteers.
DINNERS TO GO ARE A GREAT WAY TO BLESS YOUR FAMILY, YOUR NEIGHBOR, OR A TOTAL STRANGER WITH A DELICIOUS HOME-COOKED MEAL.

We are so excited to announce our new partnership with Gleaner's Community Food Bank.
We are now the first company to sign up with MealConnect, a program being piloted in Livingston County to eliminate food waste by getting it into the hands of hungry children within our community.
Our excess food and leftovers are now donated to school aged children around the county.
