Meals on Wheels

Meals on Wheels operates in virtually every community in America through our network of more than 5,000 independently-run local programs. At the core of the Meals on Wheels service is a nutritious meal, companionship and a watchful eye on the health and safety of our seniors. For those who have trouble getting around, we bring the service to you. For those who can still venture out into their communities, we serve in gathering places, such as senior centers and community facilities. Meals on Wheels focuses on caring for individuals whose diminished mobility makes it hard to shop for food, prepare meals or socialize with others. Generally programs serve adults 60 and over, although age requirements can vary by program and areas served. Depending on individual circumstances, meals may be provided along a sliding fee scale, from no cost to full price.
