Mission: Many Meals on Wheels clients have multiple health problems and are unable to provide balanced meals for themselves. About 90% of those we serve, live on a small fixed income that does not stretch to cover housing, medical needs and enough food for an entire month. As a result, many seniors and adults with disabilities, suffer from the effects of poor nutrition. Poor nutrition is one of the chief causes of premature institutional placement in hospitals and nursing homes. A large number of those served by Meals on Wheels Plus have few visitors other than the volunteer who delivers their noon meal. Many of them feel alienated and may develop emotional and/or mental disorders as a result of this isolation and deprivation. Besides delivering a nutritious meal, including special diets,the volunteers report unmet needs discovered and often form friendships with those they serve.
