Our Associate Director of Programs, Monica, recently visited the Meals On Wheels Yolo Woodland location! The MOW Yolo team prepares hot meals at their Woodland location and their operations start at 4 a.m. In addition to dining facilities and partnerships with other community-based organizations to serve meals, they deliver five meals a week to local seniors in need. 90% of their deliveries are done by volunteers, and they are always looking for more to help meet seniors where they are. They are also looking for local Yolo residents who would be interested in serving on their board. Since the pandemic, the MOW Yolo team has expanded their services from serving about 380 seniors to about 1,000. "They have worked hard to expand their meals provided since 2020 and now serve vegetarian options and dietary-specific meals for those with different medical needs," Monica shared. "All meal schedules are reviewed by a registered dietician and locally grown produce is used whenever possible."
