"To provide healthful, high quality
home delivered meals..."
We deliver nourishing meals to our clients on a regular basis, helping
them to remain self-sufficient in their own homes. Our volunteers are dedicated
to helping the disabled, homebound, aged, and chronically or temporarily ill by
providing well balanced meals and friendship.
Each meal consists of a hot lunch and a "cold" sack dinner for the evening
meal. The hot meal consists of a protein, a vegetable, and a starch. The cold
mean consists of a sandwich, salad, fruit, and dessert. A carton of milk and a
small carton of juice are also provided daily.
Meals are delivered to clients' homes by volunteers between 11:00 AM and
1:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Someone must be home to accept delivery, or an
insulated MOW bag, which is available for loan from the Lakewood Meals on
Wheels office, must be left out on the porch.
Meals are not delivered on Saturdays, Sundays, and some holidays. Frozen meals
are available upon request. They are delivered on the day before the designated
holiday or on Friday for the weekend.
Clients are charged $5.00 per day and are billed once per month. Initial
minimum service is for two weeks, payable in advance, and is
non-refundable.
To begin receiving meals, or for more information, call us at (562) 925-8747.
24 hours notice is usually required to begin the service.
