January 17, 2025
It’s 2025! The perfect time to resolve to make a real difference. Millions of seniors are waiting for meals and connection, and with challenges like extreme weather, rising costs and increasing demand making it harder for them to get the vital services they need, your resolution can change lives.
Volunteering, donating or advocating to support Meals on Wheels means you’re not just helping your aging neighbors — you’re providing hope, safety and connection in their most difficult moments. This year, you can make your time and effort count by helping us End the Wait™, ensuring no senior is left hungry or isolated.
Volunteer
Volunteers are the driving force behind Meals on Wheels. You can help your local provider deliver more than just nutritious meals — you can bring kindness and human connection to older adults in your community. Whether it’s a few hours a week or a one-time commitment, your time can brighten someone’s day and change a life this year.
Advocate
The Meals on Wheels mission is made possible by the passion and commitment of everyday people like you. Your voice can inspire change in the fight against senior hunger and isolation. Make the commitment in 2025 to reach out to your Members of Congress and urge them to protect and increase funding for essential senior nutrition programs, like Meals on Wheels, at critical moments when we’ll need you most.
Donate
Whether you choose to give a one-time gift or become a monthly donor, your contribution helps support a network of over 5,000 local providers delivering meals and connections to seniors nationwide. Monthly donors provide steady, reliable support that helps End the Wait, ensuring that every senior who needs Meals on Wheels gets it. Your gift, in any form, makes a real impact.
As we embrace 2025, let’s turn our resolutions into action. By building your commitment to Meals on Wheels, you’ll help End the Wait and provide vital support to seniors who need it most.
Every contribution, big or small, makes a world of difference for homebound seniors. Together, we can create a year of compassion and positive change.
