Boulder Meals on Wheels
Over this past year, many of these neighbors have shared how Meals on Wheels of Boulder has affected their lives: Kevin’s mom signed him up for Project Homecoming because of his shoulder surgery. She said, “Your service was a godsend and felt I was able to help him with his recovery this way since I live in North Carolina…” “I appreciate you all & everything you do…Really, if it weren’t for you guys, I wouldn’t be here!”
said Aaron W.
A client with much hardship said, “… literally, you are lifesavers!” Jackie W. especially appreciates the contact with drivers.“You (MOW) really are a lifeline. I look forward to the drivers coming and having contact with the outside world.”
“This isn’t just a food lifeline, it’s extraordinary how kind and thoughtful you all (staff & volunteers) are,” said Rita B. During this holiday season there are many ways to support Meals on Wheels of Boulder: Make a donation on Colorado Gives Day, December 7th www.coloradogives.org/mowboulder.
