All Meals on Wheels depend on generous donations from their communities.  While most of their clients pay a nominal fee for meals, they offer a sliding scale for those who cannot afford to contribute.  Also, they do not receive direct federal funding.  To keep client fees to a minimum, they rely on the generosity of donors.  You could consider adopting a person in need for a day, week, month, or year. Pam’s Takeaways. “When you get involved with Culver Palms Meals on Wheels or any Meals on Wheels organization in the United States, you will deliver more than daily nourishment. You will be providing friendship to those who spend their days alone. You will deliver independence, allowing people to age in their homes where they want to be with dignity. And most importantly, you will be giving hope to those often forgotten.” “Please consider volunteering your time, referring someone who needs help, or donating. No matter how you get involved, you’ll deliver more than meals.” “You can contact your local Area on Aging or Meals on Wheels America to find the meal program in your area. If you live on the west side of Los Angeles, please contact Culver Palms Meals on Wheels. We are all here to help you.” This photo says it all!!   Conversations + Connections = Community Making the world a better place.  One Story at a time.  What’s Your Story?
