Every Friday at 10am, the entire team at West + Main Homes Colorado comes together in a virtual meeting room to learn, share, grow, and connect.
The Executive Team provides updates regarding the state of the local and national Real Estate industry, sometimes there are special industry guests or a panel of agents sharing lessons learned, success stories, or something else that the entire group can benefit from.
West + Main agents are also invited to nominate their favorite non-profit organization. All of the nominees are entered into a drawing, and a winner is randomly drawn at the end of our meeting to receive a $500 donation from West + Main on behalf of the agent who nominated them.
We call it Feel Good Friday!
Meet this week’s Featured Non-Profit Organization, nominated by West + Main agent Spencer White:
Who is Culinary Care?
Culinary Care is a nonprofit organization bringing the nourishment of a meal, care, and joy to cancer patients and their families. When fighting cancer, the act of feeding ourselves and our families often becomes a burdensome stressor due to loss of appetite, exhaustion, and changing taste buds. As a result, cancer patients struggle to get the nourishment they need to survive. In fact, 125,000 cancer deaths each year are a direct consequence of malnutrition.
Our solution is simple: provide free meals prepared by local restaurants that are delivered with compassion by a community that cares. To us, it’s all about taking one thing off their plate by simply putting something delicious on it.
Our Story
In 2006, our Founder, Courtney White, lost her father to lung cancer. During this tumultuous time, she had friends, neighbors and loved ones that brought her family meals every night for two months straight. These meals not only gave them the physical strength to get through the day, but they gave her family hope and one less thing to worry about. Today, this is what we bring to families facing cancer.
How it Works
Secure Meals: Culinary Care sources made-to-order meals from well-established local restaurants.
Receive Referrals: Culinary Care partners with well-respected medical institutions and cancer organizations that refer patients who need meals the most.
Make the Connection: Culinary Care’s team connects with every patient to ensure our meals meet their dietary needs, as well as provide friendship & support.
Deliver One Less Worry: Culinary Care delivers the meals to our partner locations for patients to enjoy during treatment.
