Here are Just a
Few Ways That You Can Go the EXTRA MILE! |
|
|
|
Donate! Deliver a Virtual Route - Pledge $1
per mile: |
|
Make a pledge of $1 per mile! Meals on Wheels currently consists
of 20 delivery routes, each route averaging approximately 20 miles
round-trip. A donation of $100 will allow you to "virtually
deliver" a route each day for an entire week and ensure Meals on Wheels
clients are provided the proper noontime nutrition. |

|
The Running Challenge! |
|
In 2010, Assistant Director Deana Knight has already competed in three
races supporting Meals on Wheels. She has run over 50 miles (more
than 2 entire routes), with more competitions on the calendar. By
choosing The Running Challenge, you have the opportunity to compete in
races or create your own fitness challenge and ask friends and family
for financial pledges to support Meals on Wheels. |

|
Fund raisers! |
|
Students from Platt College planned and hosted a Garage Sale on
Saturday, June 12 and raised over $600 (funding to cover an entire route
for 6 weeks!) to benefit Meals on Wheels! We are always pleased to
entertain new and innovative ideas! Please contact the Meals on
Wheels office at (405) 321-7272 with any questions or to have a staff
member come speak to your organization. |

|
|
Volunteer! |
|
Meals on Wheels relies on a minimum of 100 volunteer drivers per week to
deliver meals to our ill, disabled, and elderly meal recipients.
We are always looking for volunteers to help deliver the noontime meals
to our often isolated clients. |
