SENIOR NUTRITION PROGRAM

The Senior Nutrition program provides food to older residents who are already on a tight income, living off of retirement funds, social security, SNAP (formerly food stamps), etc. The cost of medicine, utilities and rent are a stress on an already tight budget. And sometimes, an older American has to make the choice of paying for medicine or food.

Program Details: 

Seniors in need can sign up to receive a monthly box of food delivered to their home. A sample meal box may include:

• Breakfast items: cold and hot cereals, granola bars, etc.
• Canned fruits
• Canned vegetables
• Peanut butter and jelly
• Soups and stews
• Shelf-stable entrees: pasta, mac and cheese, etc.
• Canned meats: tuna, chicken
• Drinks: juice, shelf-stable milk, coffee, tea
• Snacks

Timeline:

• Monthly delivery the 2nd Wednesday of the month.
  

I wanted you to know that I received my food box and am so appreciative. Lady that came said her first time and was so nice. Items are so good and nutritious. In fact, will make some chicken and noodles for supper tonight. Again thanks so much for all you do and tell other volunteers the same.
