Chapel Hill/Carrboro Meals on Wheels provides a hot nutritious meal and personal visit Monday through Friday to those individuals living in Chapel Hill, Carrboro and the surrounding area who are unable to prepare meals for themselves due to illness, disability, or convalescence in order to improve their health, reduce isolation and help them maintain independent living.
We fulfill this mission by a commitment to:
- Understanding the needs and issues facing the local senior population.
- Developing the right nutritional solutions to address their dietary needs.
- Engaging and working with other local companies that value the dignity of our seniors.
- Recognizing that financial contribution and fiscal responsibility is essential to our continued service.
- Measuring and monitoring our service to ensure maximum effectiveness
- Encouraging all partners to share in our mission.
Here are the principles of how we live that every day:
Our Meals
The food we prepare is always about quality – quality in nutritional value, ingredients and in taste. We’re passionate about providing the best meals at the lowest cost
Our Partners
Those who work with us to complete our mission including contributors, local businesses and other charitable organizations are an essential part of our extended family. Our work could not be done without them.
Our Customers
Those we serve are part of the greater human family. It’s important that we realize that there are times in every life when the comfort and assistance of another person will be required. We are honored to serve the seniors of Chapel Hill/Carrboro and we look forward to serving many more in the future.
Our Volunteers
Meals on Wheels would cease to exist without the tireless dedication of our volunteers. These are people who have boundless energy and optimism, many of whom have busy lives, with families, careers and other commitments. But they make time to help. And that makes all the difference.
