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 home 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
June delivery will take place on Wednesday, June 17 between 9am and Noon.
Timeline:
- Monthly delivery the 2nd Wednesday of the month.
