ABOUT US

Meals on Wheels exists to serve nutritious meals and provide a daily contact to our clients. We will provide Quality Service by compassionately serving clients who have limited resources, trying to exceed the expectations of our clients whenever possible.

 

Our staff and volunteers are the backbone of our organization and we will strive to develop them and recognize their outstanding work.

Everyone is responsible for strengthening the organization, and openness, clear communication, honesty, flexibility, cooperation and accountability are the standards by which we carry out our mission.

 

Meals on Wheels is more than just a food service.  We are a friendly face.  Our volunteers take a special interest in our participants' well being and we even remember birthdays with a cake, card and a gift.

 

Volunteers deliver a hot meal or a hot lunch/cold supper between 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. five days each week.  Participants who need guidance receive counseling and nutrition education.  Special diets and weekend meal packages are available for those who require them.
