More Than A Meal: The Power of Your Philanthropy

May 15, 2025

Did you know that more than half of the Meals on Wheels Central Texas annual budget comes from generous Central Texans?

Now that summer is here, our older adult neighbors brace for increased hardship. At this moment, they critically need our support.

See how your philanthropy has the power to help older Central Texans remain independent.

Central Texas Older Adult Hunger Cannot Wait  

Together, we deliver hot, nutrient-dense meals and vital wellness checks to 3,000+ neighbors daily. But, your support helps us provide much More Than a Meal.  

In the last year, your philanthropy helped us provide: 

  • 576, 979 home-delivered meals 

  • 64,100 in-home care visits   

  • 224,550 hours of professional in-home care   

  • 82,045 meals at congregate lunch sites 

  • 66,141 pounds of food through HOPE 

  • 35,640 pounds of pet food and litter through PALS 

  • 120 home repairs  

The neighbors we serve live alone. Many are navigating complex medical conditions and reduced mobility. Most live on limited incomes. They depend on the daily nourishment and social connection we deliver to them.

Our programs like Meals on Wheels, Groceries to Go, Home Repair, and In-Home Care enrich the life they live at home. Here's how you can support this lifeline of care today.
