Hot Meal Serve Outs

Our Free Food Distribution Program, or "Serve Outs", have allowed Serving America First volunteers to feed less fortunate members of our community by proving healthy, homemade hot meals to those in need.

Sorting and cleaning produce On Sundays and Thursdays, there are two hot meal serve outs from the location at 379 West 8th Avenue. These meals are complete with vegetarian entrees, breads, salad, vegetables, drink and dessert. All food is prepared fresh and onsite with a maximum of organic and natural foods. Volunteers have been providing this service since 1969 at that location before SAF was officially formed.

These restaurant-quality meals consist of fresh plant-based produce and a minimum amount of packaged products. Not only are they healthy and tasty, but they cost on average as little as 72 cents per person. Anyone in the community is welcome to receive food at the serve outs at absolutely no cost to them.

The Free Food Distribution Program has gained a reputation of service to the community and frequently provides hot meals to the clients of various community based organizations, such as Southside Settlement House and AIDS Connection Services. Our program has partnered with the Columbus AIDS Walk to supply meals to its volunteers and will expand its services to provide healthy food to Camp Sunrise for children with HIV/AIDS.

SAF also contributes throughout the year at various events in the Columbus area. SAF volunteers are regularly requested to provide hot meal services by several local organizations, such as Southside Settlement House and Aids Connection Services.
