MARCH FOR MEALS

The Meals on Wheels program in Eau Claire County serves a hot, made from scratch, meal to approximately 450 homebound seniors every weekday. All the meals are made locally in our kitchen located in Fall Creek. We believe that good nutriton will help seniors maintain healthy minds, bodies, and ultmately their independence. Some of our program funding comes from the seniors we serve in the form of a monthly donaton. These partcipants are ofen on fxed incomes and are batling the rising cost of living.

One year of Meals on Wheels, per partcipant, is the same cost of one day in the hospital. 11% of Wisconsin seniors struggle with hunger, deciding between medicaton, housing or food. We would like to ofer business leaders and community partners an exclusive opportunity to help by sponsoring a route for homebound seniors in Eau Claire County.

March for Meals is a campaign for the Meals on Wheels program and our partcipants. Here is how it works: For a one-tme donaton you will sponsor meals for our local Meals on Wheels Partcipants at various levels of support.
