Meals on Wheels America Announces Bold Plan to End the Wait for Millions of Seniors Facing Food Insecurity and Social Isolation [Video]

Plan shared in front of hundreds of local Meals on Wheels program leaders and national partners at the organization’s 50^th anniversary convening in Baltimore

ARLINGTON, Va., Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Meals on Wheels America’s 50^th anniversary is a moment to celebrate and honor the leadership organization’s five decades of achievement in supporting community-based Meals on Wheels programs around the country. It also serves as a reminder of the crucial change needed for a population that has been underfunded and ignored for far too long. The Meals on Wheels network provides life-saving services for millions of seniors every day, but too many older Americans are still waiting for nutritious meals and moments of connection. That’s why the organization today announced at its 2024 Meals on Wheels Annual Conference and Expo a bigger, bolder plan to ensure every senior who needs Meals on Wheels gets it.
