"Thank you so much. I am one of those you feed. If it was not for Meals on Wheels I would have starved to death. My health does not allow me to grocery shop. I rely on my kids to keep me with essentials. So thank you again."

"CareLink is a wonderful help. Our caregiver goes over and beyond the call to make sure all of my needs are met. There’s a wonderful lady with the meals program who calls daily to check in. My family never has to worry about my needs being met, they are so appreciative of everything that has been done for me."
