Fallsway Partners with Meals on Wheels

Written by Fallsway | Feb 24, 2015 12:01:33 PM

Throughout the month of February, Fallsway employees will be taking time out of their busy workday to give back in the local community. As part of our community service projects for 2015, we are partnering with the Meals on Wheels of Summit and Mahoning counties, to help them in their fight against hunger.

Every Thursday and Friday during the month of February, employees from both our Akron and Youngstown, Ohio offices will be delivering food to senior citizens in the area. Employees say they love being able to help out the community that has given them so much over the years.

The Meals On Wheels Association of America is the oldest and largest national organization of senior nutritional programs in the United States. In total, there are over 5,000 local senior nutrition programs across the U.S. These programs provide well over one million meals to seniors who need them each day. Some programs serve meals at congregate locations like senior centers, some programs deliver meals directly to the homes of seniors whose mobility is limited, and many programs provide both services. Meals on Wheels and its volunteers strive to deliver three things, a nutritious meal, a warm smile and a safety check that help keep 2.5 million seniors healthy, safe and living independently in their own homes each year.
