Penn's Village is an innovative, grassroots, volunteer-driven organization established in 2008 to enhance the quality of lives for residents in Center City Philadelphia neighborhoods. Penn's Village is deeply committed to a holistic quality of life approach to support members' needs and foster community building, in order to promote greater opportunities for older adults to maintain independent living. Penn's Village provides and coordinates access to comprehensive, supportive services, programs and social opportunities that enable older adults to remain in thier homes safely and with diginity.

Over the past few months, Penn's Village has been asking neighbors "How can we make Penn's Village meet your needs? What can Penn's Village do to become an integral part of our community?" You have told us and we have listened! Penn's Village hopes you like the changes!

Penn's Village Meals
Penn's Village offers home delivered meals to its volunteers and members.

Penn's Village can deliver appetizing, health conscious meals appropriate for any diet restrictions at very reasonable prices. Meals arrive freshly prepared on day of delivery. They can be consumed that day or may be refrigerated for 3-4 days or can be frozen. See this week's meals selection See this week's meal options and review pricing »
