Community Support is Critical

Meals on Wheels currently serves more than 700 clients in Santa Clara County, delivering more than more than 97,000 meals annually. Yet a growing number of seniors continue to live a solitary existence, suffering from the effects of malnutrition because they are physically or financially unable to care for themselves. Many are simply too proud to ask for help. With your increased support, Meal on Wheels can help feed many more seniors and other physically challenged residents. We urge you to become a Meals on Wheels solution partner through your financial contribution. Click here to make a donation.

Meals on Wheels is supported with $101,762 from The City of San Jose Healthy Neighborhood Venture Fund and with $25,950 from the City of San Jose Housing Services.
