Mission

To enrich the lives of seniors and assist them in maintaining independence by providing nutritious food, human connections and social support. 

Bottom Line for Portland

Meals on Wheels People provides a hot meal to every senior who requests one without having to institute a waiting list. Last year, it served and delivered 1.3 million meals to more than 17,000 older adults in the community.

“We have been involved with Meals on Wheels People for more than 18 years. They are a top-notch organization that truly lives their mission to ensure that no senior will go hungry or experience social isolation.” —Steve Foltz, owner of Jamba Juice and Cinnabon franchises
