New baby meals

Are you expecting a new child, either by birth or adoption, or do you know someone who is? Wouldn’t having someone else worry about dinner be blissful? The CPRC can help with one of our most popular membership benefits.

This is a great service, but it’s unfortunately for members only. Consider joining today!

How it works

  • Submit a new baby meal request form on this page around the time of the homecoming.
  • Baby meals coordinators communicate with the new parents about timing, needs, and any dietary restrictions/preferences.
  • Coordinators create a schedule using TakeThemAMeal.com.
  • Coordinators share an announcement to all members on the CPRC email distribution list.
  • CPRC members volunteer to provide dinners (and/or other supports).

The CPRC typically delivers 3-6 meals or other deliveries per baby. While there is no cost to accept hospitality, if you receive meals it’s a great idea to give back by making meals for other new parents once your life settles down.

As a thank you for volunteering, each family who contributes a meal or support to a new family will receive a raffle ticket. Families earn tickets each time they contribute. At the end of each membership year, typically in August, we hold a raffle for a $100 gift card.

Want to help but cooking isn’t your specialty?

In addition to meals, members can also sign up for slots for other ways to show love. This can include anything from bringing baked goods, diapers, or baby books to getting a Grubhub or UberEats gift card — the sky’s the limit.
