A nutritious meal is only the start of the value Meals on Wheels can deliver to keep your most vulnerable community members healthy.
For nearly 50 years, Meals on Wheels has touched the lives of millions of seniors, providing them with the nutrition they need and human contact they desire. Volunteers from our Meals on Wheels network are the “eyes and ears” in the homes of our most at-risk members. Every visit comes with a nutritious meal created to address the health conditions of the senior, a safety check, and an observation of any changes that might impact future medical needs. This can mean the difference between independent living at home and an unwelcome transfer to a costly long-term care facility.
All volunteers receive orientation and delivery instructions. It takes only 30 to 60 minutes to deliver a route.
