We could not be more grateful for our community partner, God’s Goods. Their generosity is felt throughout our organization, and it is amazing to see so many volunteers shared between our two groups bringing joy and connection to our community.

Thank you for your continued kindness and support and for the countless lives you touch throughout our community. A special thank you to Ken Schnupp and everyone at God’s Goods who help make this possible. We are so grateful for all you do! 🩵💚

Messages like this remind us that we are more than just a meal for our homebound neighbors. ❤️

One of our recipients recently shared this note with us:

“Thank everyone at Meals on Wheels. I would have starved without y’alls help, kindness and gifts. (Sorry, still learning to write again). God Bless all of you. Thank you.”

Every meal delivered comes with a friendly face, a wellness check, and the reassurance that someone cares. Thank you to our volunteers, donors, and supporters who make these meaningful connections possible every day.

At Meals on Wheels • Feeding Friends, every dollar matters.

Our President, George Roberts, shares his perspective in a recent article published in The Moultrie News on how fundraising middlemen can take a portion of donations before they ever reach the intended cause, and why giving directly to local nonprofits helps ensure all of your donation goes toward serving those who need it most.

When you make a charitable donation to a local nonprofit, you naturally assume that 100 percent of your hard-earned money goes directly toward fulfilling that organization's mission. However, a quiet and troubling shift is happening in the philanthropic space. A vast number of third-party, "middlema...

In honor of Pet Appreciation Week, we’re celebrating the four-legged helpers who make our mission even brighter 🐾💚

From volunteer pups who tag along on deliveries and bring smiles to our recipients, to the cat food we deliver weekly for our feline friends, pets are part of the care we provide too.

Because connection comes in many forms, and sometimes it has paws.🐾

🍑 Nothing says summer in South Carolina quite like a fresh peach!

Today, our homebound neighbors enjoyed fresh, locally grown peaches from Mac’s Pride in McBee, SC. We love being able to provide not only nutritious meals, but also delicious seasonal treats grown right here in our state. Supporting local farmers while serving our neighbors makes today’s delivery a little sweeter. 🧡🍑

Today started off like any other day for Larry, one of our weekly volunteers.

He headed out on his usual Monday delivery route, making visits to the homebound recipients he sees each week. But when he arrived to deliver meals to Peter, one of the recipients he visits regularly, he quickly noticed that something seemed off.

Peter assured Larry that he was fine. But as Larry turned to leave, he heard a thump on the other side of the door.
Peter had fallen.

Larry alerted us to the situation and called 911 for assistance. He stayed with Peter until help arrived while we contacted Peter’s emergency contact, letting them know what had happened so they could head straight to his home to check on him.

Stories like this remind us that Meals on Wheels is about so much more than food. For many of our homebound recipients, a volunteer’s visit is also a wellness check, a friendly face, and a vital connection to the community.

If Larry had not been there today, Peter may have been left on the floor until someone happened to check on him.

A meal was delivered today, but so was something even more important: help when it was needed most.

Thank you, Larry, for showing up week after week and paying attention to our neighbors. Your dedication, compassion, and commitment to this community mean more than words can express. ❤️
