The website allows volunteers to select a specific day they'd like to deliver food, and share the meal they plan to cook.
So far, 59 people have volunteered to deliver home-cooked meals for Erin's family, meaning that the Plummers won't have to cook for themselves for the next two months.
According to the page, the Plummers prefer meals to be dropped off between 5-6pm, and request that there are food options for one family member who is allergic to eggs, nuts and diary.
