Are You OK?
This is a “free” telephone reassurance call service to pre-registered seniors & disabled residents who live alone. City staff provide a friendly call to check on each pre-registered participant daily (Monday-Friday only), making sure that all is well. If everything is not ok or a participant fails to answer their phone after several attempts have been made to reach them, a uniformed Lauderhill Police Officer will be dispatched to the home and a well check will be conducted. For more information or to sign up for the program, please contact us by phone at 954-791-1039.
Emergency Food Pantry
The City works with partners to assist Lauderhill residents who are unable to meet their immediate household meal needs due to loss of income, illness, or other family emergency. For more information or to see if you qualify for this assistance, please contact us by phone at 954-791-1039. You can also visit Feeding South Florida's webpage or Meals on Wheels webpage to find a local agency that can assist you.
Holiday Baskets
Each year, food baskets are provided to Lauderhill's less fortunate families during the holidays in November and December. Through the generous donations and support of the community, these holiday baskets help support those in our community who are in need. Referrals are accepted from Lauderhill schools, community agencies, and other organizations. Baskets typically contain non-perishable as well as fresh food items. The baskets during the December giveaway also include a toy for each eligible child (0-12 years old) in the household.
For more information, please contact us by phone at 954-730-3080.
