Delivering much more than just a meal!
Thank you to everyone who joined us on October 4th, 2024, for our annual Dinner Fundraiser! This year's video showcased our dedicated Volunteers, Sandra and Paula, as they made their way through the Lakeland community, delivering nutritious meals to our homebound neighbors. Their commitment and care truly shone as they connected with those in need, highlighting the vital role our volunteers play in supporting our mission.

“More than just a Meal!” We follow Sandra & Paula out delivering so much more than just a meal!
Keeping Seniors Safe
We deliver more than just a meal.
Our volunteers get to know the people we deliver too. With that daily contact they bring a smile to the recipients. This is the “Power of the knock”. Many seniors live alone and the volunteer is the only human contact they have. With this daily interaction our volunteers have been able to save many seniors who have fallen or need help. Meals on Wheels is not just a meal it is a life line for our elderly community!

Stories
“A knock at the door might not seem like a big deal to many of us. But, to a homebound senior, it could signal the arrival of the only person they might see all day or all week long. It brings hope. It brings health. It brings the nutrition and care that will completely make their day. A knock from Meals on Wheels can even save lives.”
