Our Mission
Meals on Wheels is dedicated to providing nutritious meals, companionship, and community support to seniors and individuals in need, empowering them to live independently with dignity in their own homes.
We aim to reduce isolation, improve quality of life, and foster a compassionate community.

Recipient Testimonials
“I am grateful for the MOW Volunteers! They are so dedicated to the giving of their time. They contribute to making my life so much easier. I would NEVER be able to eat as healthy on my own. Thanks so much especially to the drivers and all those who work to make this program available.”
“This is a wonderful idea to help people eat a meal and I hope you can keep it going. The food is tasty and this way I get a variety of food to eat. Very thankful for this help.”
“I am so grateful that I am on the Meals on Wheels program. It allows me to stay in my home longer. I have no immediate family nearby, but they are glad to know that I have a good meal and daily contact with others. Thanks to Active Generations Meals on Wheels program.”
