Still Time to Adopt a Meals on Wheels Route for Christmas

Meals on Wheels-Anderson implemented an Adopt-a-Route program for Thanksgiving Day where volunteers cooked and delivered a hot meal to the regular Meals on Wheels recipients on the day the office was closed for Thanksgiving. This program went over so well, the organization is seeking assistance for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as well. 

Meals on Wheels usually sends a frozen meal to recipients any day that the office is closed for a holiday. However, the Adopt a Route program will offer the community an opportunity to lend a helping hand during the holidays and serve hot meals to recipients. 

Adopt a Route invites individuals, families, churches, civic groups and more to choose a standard Meals on Wheels food delivery route, prepare a meal to serve to those on the route and deliver it on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. 

To Adopt a Route, one must prepare (or purchase) the food and arrange for delivery. The staff at Meals on Wheels will assist in finding a route that suits the needs of the volunteers based on location and number of people to serve.

If you are interested in Adopting a Route, contact Jeanie Campbell at the MOW office at 864-225-6800 or jcampbell@acmow.org.
