Help Reduce Food Insecurity and Loneliness for Asian American Elders

Join Me in Reducing Food Insecurity and Loneliness for Elders

Hi [Recipient Name],

I’m excited to share that I’ve created a fundraiser to support Heart of Dinner’s mission to reduce food insecurity, social isolation, and loneliness among nearly Asian American older adults living in significantly under-resourced communities across NYC.

Heart of Dinner’s signature care packages provide far beyond culturally thoughtful food—they’re symbols of love and connection. Each care package includes:

• 💌 Handwritten notes of love in the Elder’s native language, offering comfort and belonging.
• 🎨 Beautifully hand-decorated bags that brighten their week and remind them they’re never alone.
• 🍱 Nutrient-dense meals sourced from small businesses owned by BIPOC, women, and LGBTQIA+ leaders.

Our Elders face challenges that go far beyond hunger:

• 1 in 3 Asian Elders in NYC lives below the poverty line—a rate much higher than the citywide average.

• Older Asian American women have disproportionately high suicide rates, driven by loneliness, mental health stigma, and a lack of culturally responsive care.

That’s why I’m asking for your support. Every dollar raised helps Heart of Dinner continue their longterm home-deliveries and build out their infrastructure to reach Elders in need.

My goal is to raise [Insert Fundraising Goal], and your support will make a real difference:

• $30 provides one care package filled with meals and love.

• $300 supports five Elders with weekly care packages for two weeks.

• $600 home-delivers care packages for 10 Elders for an entire month.

• $1,200 nourishes 10 Elders for an entire month.

Please consider making a donation to help me reach my goal. It’s easy and secure to give online, and any amount you contribute will go directly toward supporting our beloved Elders.

Join me in uplifting our community—every meal and note of love matters.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support.

Warmly,

Hi [Donor Name],

Thank you so much for your generous donation to my fundraising campaign for Heart of Dinner. Because of your support, we’re able to deliver culturally thoughtful care packages that bring nourishment, joy, and connection to Asian American Elders across NYC who experience food insecurity and isolation.

At Heart of Dinner, our mission is about more than food—it’s about caring for the whole person. Each care package is carefully crafted to support physical, emotional, and mental well-being:

🍱 Nutrient-dense meals sourced from local small businesses owned by BIPOC, women, and LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs.

💌 Handwritten notes of love in the Elder’s native language to foster emotional connection and remind them they are seen, valued, and cherished.

🎨 Beautifully hand-decorated bags filled with bright, uplifting illustrations to bring moments of joy and reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Because of you, we’re making a real impact in the lives of Elders who are often overlooked and face barriers that leave them feeling disconnected and alone. You’re not only helping me reach my fundraising goal—you’re helping reduce food insecurity, social isolation, and loneliness for a vulnerable community.

I’ll keep you posted on our progress, and in the meantime, I encourage you to learn more about Heart of Dinner’s incredible work and the difference we’re making together. Click here to see their weekly updates on Heart of Dinner's Instagram!
