Heart of the House Meal Program

The Heart of the House Meal Program provides a way to extend care and comfort to our families who appreciate a nutritious meal before or after a long day at the hospital.

 

To provide a meal, please complete the form below and/or call 309.685.5300. There are several ways to provide a meal.

Cook a meal with your group in our kitchen.

Drop off a meal or have it delivered to Family House. 

  • Ask restaurants if they are able to prepare individually packaged meals. Many offer this as an option.  

  • The Family House staff will be able to confirm current occupancy to recommend the amount of food to donate.

Make a donation for the purpose of a meal.

  • Make a donation here or mail a check to Family House, 1339 E Nebraska Ave., Peoria, IL 61603.

  • A donation of $150 can provide our families with one meal.  

Provide gift cards to help feed our guests.
