Caring for an aging loved one often means juggling meals, transportation, activities, and daily supervision. When those pieces come together reliably, seniors gain consistency and families gain real respite.
We were proud to be featured on 6ABC Philadelphia for a local nonprofit partnership that helps us provide varied, high-quality meals at no added cost — freeing us to focus on the full adult day care experience.

Local nonprofit showcases how ‘It Takes A Village to Feed One Child’ – 6ABC Philadelphia (Published February 26, 2026)
The 6ABC Story & Our Quote
The segment highlighted Mark Wainwright’s nonprofit “It Takes A Village to Feed One Child,” which uses state funding to deliver over 200,000 meals monthly to community organizations — including adult day care centers serving seniors across Philadelphia.
Penn Village is a consistent recipient. Owner & Operator Neil Kaneria explained the real benefit:
“If you have something to look forward to, something to wake up to, your health kind of improves as a result of it…The menu is varied so it doesn’t repeat. Getting that free of cost for seniors, what it does is it allows us to focus more on the quality of the program.”
— Neil Kaneria, Owner & Operator, Penn Village Adult Day Care
How This Partnership Strengthens Our Adult Day Care Program
Free, varied daily meals mean we don’t divert resources to food logistics. Instead, we invest more in what Philadelphia families tell us matters most:
- Licensed nurses and personal care aides providing individualized oversight and support
- Door-to-door ADA-compliant transportation that makes attendance reliable and stress-free
- Engaging daily activities — yoga, arts & crafts, games, music, social clubs, and more — designed to promote independence, physical movement, and genuine connection
- Respite for caregivers so they can work, run errands, or simply recharge
Consistent nutrition plus structured programming creates a safe, welcoming daytime environment where seniors look forward to their day and families feel supported.
