MORE THAN JUST A MEAL

Our Meals on Wheels drivers make sure that each of the seniors whose lives they touch are better for it.

A nutritious meal is served Monday through Friday to seniors aged 60 or older who are homebound due to an illness or physical disability and have no one to prepare a meal for them.  The meals are approved by a registered dietician and meet 1/3 of the recommended daily dietary allowance.
 
Meals on Wheels is much more than just a meal.  It is a daily human contact on which seniors who are homebound and alone much of the time may rely.  It is a sense of security knowing that someone will come, that someone cares.
 
Customers receiving home delivered meals are asked to make a suggested contribution of $3.50 per meal.  The actual cost per meal is over $6.50.  Qualified customers will not be denied meals based on ability to contribute.
