Your Gifts Brought Our PALS Neighbors Holiday Joy

January 7, 2026

Our holiday PALS (Pets Assisting the Lives of Seniors) distribution was a success! Thanks to our volunteers and donors, PALS neighbors received a gift for their pets along with their regularly scheduled PALS delivery. Items distributed include pet treats, accessories, toys, and more. 

We would like to thank the following community partners and supporters for their generous donations and time in supporting the event: 

  • The Neighbors of Appaloosa Run 

  • Tiffany Henthrup 

Meals on Wheels Central Texas is committed to empowering older adults and individuals living with disabilities in aging in place with dignity and independence. The PALS program is just one of many ways we support our neighbors by supporting them with their furry friends that provide comfort and companionship. 

Looking for a way to uplift homebound Central Texans in need? Our highest need is always meal delivery. Each day of the week, we deliver hot, healthy lunch and vital social connection to more than 3,000 homebound neighbors across seven Central Texas counties. We rely on volunteers to make this mission possible, each day!
