Send a gourmet gift and help a Dad in need this Father’s Day.
Thank you to everyone who sent a special Father’s Day card or gift and made Community Servings’ Dinners4Dads fundraiser such a success! We raised more than $27,0000 to provide nutritious meals to dads who are too sick to shop and cook for themselves and their families.
On behalf of our critically and chronically ill clients, thank you! And a special thanks to our generous sponsors – Eastern Standard Provisions, Susy Pilgrim Waters and Gold Star Studios.
At a time when sending a message of love and appreciation has never been more important, Community Servings’ Dinners4Dads fundraiser allows you to show the important father figure in your life how much you care on Father’s Day, from the safety and comfort of your own home.
For a $30 donation, you can make a meaningful difference in the lives of local fathers and families struggling with critical and chronic illnesses. In exchange, your honoree will receive a beautiful card designed by local artist Susy Pilgrim Waters with your personalized message.
Thanks to our Dinners4Dads partner, Eastern Standard Provisions, those looking to spoil dear old dad just a little bit more can send the personalized card and a small or large gift box of gourmet soft pretzels and accompanying salts. Each gift will provide medically tailored meals to a father facing critical illness in Massachusetts.
By supporting Community Servings through Dinners4Dads, you are making a positive impact in the lives of local fathers struggling with critical or chronic illnesses. Fathers like 33-year-old Bouba Diemé, who lives in Boston with his wife, five-year-old-son, and almost-two-year-old twins.
Bouba has a congenital heart defect and is on a waiting list for a heart transplant. He currently receives weekly deliveries of medically tailored meals that help him manage his condition by controlling his sodium intake and keeping his weight in check. He credits the meals he receives from Community Servings with helping him lose some weight, regain his energy, and get back to working full time.
“As an advanced heart failure patient, your margin is very small, so a small difference in the amount of salt, for instance, can put you to bed or make you very sick,” – Client Bouba Diemé.

Thank you to our incredible Dinners4Dads sponsors. Their heartfelt donations of time, effort and product will help Community Servings feed more local fathers in need now and in the future.
