The project was aimed at helping families struggling with unemployment or other financial hardships caused by the [[PANDEMIC]]. On the first day, ten free casseroles were distributed between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. and fifty more between 3:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. The program was schedules to continue for ten Thursdays and the last week on Wednesday. Earlier in the year, Convivium worked with Project Rooted to assemble and handout free lunches to children after schools closed in March. In September the organization worked with [[ST.

While Convivium secured financial aid to serve the meals, it asked recipients to complete a demographic waiver to assist in receiving support to maintain the meal program.
