More About Our Program

Our Commitment

Nutritional health is an important factor for remaining independent as we age. Meals on Wheels provides in-home delivery of hot meals five days a week. With support for good nutrition and healthy living, many older adults in our area are able to live safely and independently in their own homes.

How much do the meals cost?

There is no cost to participants. We do ask all participants for a voluntary contribution. No one is ever denied service if they are unable or unwilling to contribute.
