Senior Meals on Wheels (Michigan)

The Senior Meals on Wheels Program provides a range of nutritional services not offered by any other agency in Kent County, to the elderly of our community. The meals we provide are prepared on-site in our own kitchen, and are nutritionally balanced, one-third of the RDA, and specific to the needs of the senior. On a daily basis, we serve over 1900 meals to frail, elderly senior citizens. These unique opportunities would not be possible without private donations to supplement our dwindling government support. Through our senior dining centers we are helping to prevent the negative effects of isolation, malnutrition, and depression, typically seen in older adults. In a recently conducted survey, 85% of our clients responded that they have a better outlook on life, 75% responded that they are eating better and are healthier and over 65% report that they depend on the meals as their only source of nutrition, and depend on the daily check of our meal delivery driver. With the help of both paid staff and countless volunteers we enable seniors to live healthy and independent in their own homes.
