You, Too, Can March for Meals on Wheels!

Across the country, Meals on Wheels programs have come together each March since 2002 to celebrate the communitywide collaboration that ensures older adults can live healthy, happy, and independent lives at home, where they want to be. SourcePoint has provided Meals on Wheels to Delaware County older adults since 1998. As of October, SourcePoint had already served over 226,000 meals, a 19% growth over the previous year. Our program provides vital nutrition, with meals tailored to meet medical needs and preferences.

Did you know clients select from multiple menus that offer hot, cold, low-sodium, carb-controlled, and vegetarian options? Recipes are handcrafted in SourcePoint’s production kitchen, resulting in healthy, delicious meals like strawberry salmon salad, root-beer braised pork, and vegetable teriyaki over brown rice. (Classic recipes like meatloaf remain a favorite!) In addition to addressing senior hunger, SourcePoint provides a valuable human connection with those who may live alone or otherwise be isolated. From a friendly “hello” and safety check to a volunteer singing “Happy Birthday!” to a client, the fact that SourcePoint delivers more than just a meal is the most beautiful and irreplaceable aspect of the program. To ensure our nutritious meals and vital safety checks continue as Delaware County’s older population increases in coming years, we rely on donations to bolster our funding. We need your help to support SourcePoint’s Meals on Wheels: • Feed one neighbor for a year with $3,500. • Feed one neighbor for a month with $275. • Feed one neighbor for a week with $65. You can make a gift today at MySourcePoint.org/give. The support of community members like you ensures no older adult in need is turned away. We are proud to serve our Delaware County community!
