For over 50 years, Meals on Wheels TPSS has been meeting the needs of homebound residents experiencing food insecurity. Today, it serves nearly three times the number of clients compared to before the pandemic, delivering more than 55,000 meals annually. Every day, volunteers prepare and deliver a deli lunch and a hot meal, tailored for various allergies and dietary restrictions. For many vulnerable elders and residents with disabilities who live in isolation, these daily in-home visits provide crucial social interaction. Meals on Wheels also leverages partnerships to offer vaccinations, address safety hazards, make home repairs, and liaise with clients’ families and care providers. Acting as a critical safety net service in a region where food insecurity is growing rapidly, Meals on Wheels sustains and connects residents so they can live with dignity.
