MEALS ON WHEELS–LEXINGTON

Meals on Wheels is a unique humanitarian program inspired by the mission to solve the problems of those unable to live at home without help. There are no age or income restrictions. The only qualification for participation in the program is the inability to shop, cook and prepare your own meals.

Community volunteers are the backbone of the program. They pack and deliver the meals. Their friendly visits furnish daily outside contact. Meals are prepared and delivered from two sponsoring churches: Trinity Baptist and Second Presbyterian. Volunteers from many other churches and groups assist with meal delivery including Christ the King, Kiwanis, St. Raphael, Christ Church Cathedral, Good Shepherd, Maxwell Street Presbyterian, Faith Fellowship, Calvary Baptist, and Meadowthorpe Presbyterian.

Who is Eligible?
Inability to prepare or provide your own meals is the only qualification for participation in the program. Upon request for Meals on Wheels, we will determine with you your eligibility for the program.

Meals on Wheels costs $30 per week ($6 per day), for delivery of two meals a day Monday through Friday. This includes holidays if the holiday falls on a weekday. We are unable to provide special diets at this time.

Service is provided to homebound persons. A home delivered hot noon meal, breakfast, cereal, milk and juice, and supper snack is provided Monday thru Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
