The clients who visit Senior Support Services in Denver are treated like family, and this week's 7Everyday Hero is part of the reason why.

"We make sure everyone has a meal and when we do it's not just about serving food - it's about serving love, hospitality and friendship - so that's why it's important," said Rita Niblack.

Senior Support Services is a non-profit that serves homeless and hungry seniors. About ten years ago, Rita Niblack decided these people needed a hot meal at the end of the day. She was able to convince local churches to buy and prepare dinner five days a week.

"It's a Herculean feat and we owe her a huge debt of gratitude," said Ted Pascoe, Executive Director of Senior Support Services. Niblack teaches at Mullen High School all day, but still manages the meal program - and even helps serve the food.

"She's been more than a cornerstone, she has done great by bringing meals down - and she does anything a person asks," said one of the center's clients.
