The Community Connection

Meals on Wheels, Etc. began providing home-delivered meals and transportation service in 1973 to seniors of Seminole County. Since that time, we have added many additional services that help meet the growing needs of vulnerable seniors in our area. We offer a number of vital programs that help them remain in their own homes and local communities so they can continue to live their lives with as much independence as possible.

Currently, we are serving meals to more than 500 seniors a day who are unable to prepare their own meals. Yet, there are still hundreds of needy seniors who need our help.
