Cost
Each hot meal costs Meals on Wheels about $5.40 to prepare and deliver, and each cold supplement costs $1.93. We ask for a monthly donation to help cover the cost of the meals, but no one is ever denied a meal based upon the ability to pay.
Each recipient agrees to a daily donation based upon income. At the end of each month, we calculate a suggested donation amount based upon the number of meals that have actually been received. We will send the donation request in an envelope with the meal, or we can mail the request to another individual. We ask that the donation be put in the envelope and returned to the delivery person. It may also be mailed to us.
If recipients cannot afford the amount requested, we ask that they give
what they can and call the office to adjust the daily amount for the next
time. Contributions are important for the continuation of our work, but
we do not want it to become a burden.
