ShivaMealtrain

Help feed a family sitting shiva

The family lists the meals they need for the week. Everyone who cares can bring one, without a single phone call.

Organize a Shiva Mealtrain

For the family, or a friend helping them. Choose the days and meals you need, and share one link. It takes about five minutes.

How it works

For friends and neighbours

  1. Search for the family, or open the link you were sent. No account needed.
  2. Pick a meal that’s still needed and say what you’re bringing.
  3. We email you the address, and a reminder the morning of if you’d like one.

For the family

  1. Choose the shiva dates and the meals you’d like each day.
  2. Add food notes and drop-off details. Your address stays private.
  3. Share one link with your community. Or ask a friend to do all of this for you.

Setting this up for someone else?

Often a friend, neighbour or someone from shul organizes the meals, so the family doesn’t have to. You can share the passcode so the family can help manage it.
