Summer of Support: Meals and Smiles You Can Help Us Deliver

June 2, 2025
Supporters like you have helped us serve thousands of older adults in need during 2025. From healthy meals to in-home care and home repairs, your support fuels a lifeline.
The care you've helped provide this year includes the 400,000+ hot and frozen meals we've delivered. With each meal delivered, volunteers have provided that vital moment of human connection neighbors critically need.
Now that summer is here, we ask for your continued support. Support, including donations and volunteers, is needed to help us cross the finish line.
You Provide Sustenance for Neighbors like Thomas
One of the many lives touched by your support is Thomas, a neighbor who has been receiving meals from us for several years. After undergoing surgery on his esophagus, Thomas needed to maintain a soft diet as per his doctor's orders.
“They (volunteers) don’t just bring the food. They also bring human connection.” Thomas, MOWCTX Neighbor
With heartfelt gratitude, he adds, “Thank you, a million times.” This 'thank you' echoes the appreciation of all our neighbors who rely on your kindness.
Now, we are seeking support to provide a total of 204,000 meals throughout the summertime. The total cost of this care, including a hot, healthy lunch and a smile, is $2,448,000.
Make a gift to support this care, volunteer with us, or share a message that amplifies our goal. Together, we can continue to nourish and provide life-sustaining services to neighbors like Thomas.
