The apostles told the other believers to choose men to care for those widows.

Acts 6:2-4

2 So, after the twelve apostles had heard what they were complaining about, they summoned all the other believers in Jerusalem to meet together. Then the apostles said to those other believers, “We (exc) would not be doing right if we stopped preaching and teaching God’s message about Jesus in order to distribute food [MTY] and money to the widows! 3 So, fellow believers, carefully choose seven men from among you, men whom you know that the Spirit of God controls completely and who are very wise. Then we (exc) will appoint them to do this work, 4 and we (exc) will devote our time to pray and to preach and teach the message about Jesus.”
