Promoting Independence, Socialization and Improving quality of life.
A recent widow in La Crosse County stated, “Senior dining has been a life saver after the death of my husband. I eat much better when I dine with others and have good food for me. Just not the same eating alone at home. Thank you!”
An 87-year-old from Winnebago County stated, “Without this program I would probably not be here.”
Delivering More Than a Meal!
The meals make my life better. I am 93 and doing good. I love seeing who comes each day, they are my kind of meals. God Bless all of you and the helpers who come. (Grant County Senior)
Someone cares is the good feeling I get from receiving MOWs and the food is plentiful-fresh and so nutritious. (Langlade County Senior)
I just lost my husband so am so thankful for the driver as he is the only person I see I am very satisfied with the meals. (Iron County Widow)
Managing Chronic Conditions and Decreasing Healthcare Visits
As a diabetic my doctor is happy that I dine at the meal site, due to the fact I get the proper diet and by doing this I have better blood sugar and don't need to take large amounts of insulin and I feel better! You are doing a great job!! (Grant County Senior)
I have eaten at the program for quite a few years. My general lab results work better. Have known previously what foods I should eat, but I feel these meals have improved (my health). (Wood County Senior).
This service helped me while I recovered from a fractured hip.
I have severe scoliosis in my back. Surgeons say it can’t be operated on. I give my meals to my husband who is 85 because most of the time I’m in too much pain to cook. Meals on wheels provides him with at least one good meal a day. I appreciate all the hard work that goes into making the meals. Also, I really appreciate the volunteers that deliver the meals. Most days they are the only person I see. (85-year-old Sawyer County Resident) (Source WI Title III Nutr. Program Satisfaction Surrey)
