Meals on Wheels providers are serving more seniors than ever — with no increase in funding. That’s where silent nights and hungry days meet, during a season when good company and meals should be abundant. Learn how you can help for the holidays: https://mealswhls.org/3Kkr1hT

This holiday season, ensure that seniors aren't spending another silent night wondering when help will come. Help us bring meals and connection to those still waiting.
