Meals on Wheels San Diego County is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the independence and well-being of seniors in San Diego, CA. With a history dating back to 1960, the organization has grown to deliver over 600,000 meals annually to over 4,500 clients throughout the county. Their dedicated volunteers not only provide nutritious meals but also offer human connection and safety checks, making a significant impact on the lives of homebound seniors.
As the only agency providing meals seven days a week, including holidays, Meals on Wheels San Diego County goes above and beyond to ensure that no senior is forgotten. They cover the entire county, including rural and unincorporated areas, and subsidize 60% of the costs for meals, delivery, and other services, regardless of a senior's ability to pay. With their large and caring volunteer workforce, they not only deliver meals but also provide essential human contact and a safety net for seniors living alone, often being the only person they see all day. Lives are saved every week through their efforts in acquiring emergency personnel for seniors in need of immediate assistance.
