Message of the Chair
As we gradually chart our way out of the pandemic into a hopefully more secure future, and none of us would like to hear the word Covid-19 ever again, I can not help but reflect on year 2020. I want that our charity and community should always remember the steel resilience, commitment and compassion of our staff, volunteers, supporters and senior community one to another.
A core element of our service model had ground to a halt overnight, and yet our seniors were in greater need than ever before—in need of nutritious food, housing where they could shelter in place, health support and COVID testing, and safe ways to stay connected. In order to keep delivering on our vital mission, we had to do things differently-and fast. We're proud to say that FOZD rose to that challenge. In a matter of days, we more than tripled our home-delivered meals implemented new socialization programs adapted our wraparound model to a socially distanced world all while meeting the needs of a 32 percent increase in clients. But none of this would have been possible without you, our generous supporters. It's our great pleasure to present the following report as a testament to all you've made possible. We thank you for your partnership.
R. Herman

Loaves of Love: Seniors enjoy a homemade Brunch with specialty delicacies like banana bread, fruit yoghurt, vegetsble omelets and 50up prepared by other seniors and volunteers. We serve special modified meals for participan15 on restricted medical diets e.£ for cholesterol, swallowng difficulties etc. Participants receive 113 of their daily nutritional requirement and the most important meal of the day, a crucial component for well-being that benefits those facing food insecurity. For some, loaves of Love is the only rneal of the day. Furthermore, the rneal program offsets the effectsof isolation for people who live alone, promotes social interaction, prowdes opportunities for establishing friendships, and is often an entry point into other social acliwties. Participants are collected in accessible transport and transported home Repairand Care We complete small DIY jobs for older people to help them maintain their homes and their independence. Operatin£ in Hackne¥, Repair and Care does jobs that might be more difficult to complete as we get older, but not big enough lo call in a tradesperson.
