Meals on
Wheels of West Los Angeles delivers over 160 meals daily to homebound
individuals living on the west side.
Forty percent of all our clients cannot afford the full cost of their
meals. Your donations help to ensure that the nutritious meals and human
contact provided by Meals on Wheels of West LA will continue. Since we receive no government
funding, it is by the gifts of our donors that we are able to deliver
nourishment, comfort, and independence.
HOW YOU
CAN HELP 1. By
volunteering to deliver meals for 2 hours once a week or even once a month,
from 10:15 am until 12:30 pm any Monday thru Friday. 2. By
encouraging people who might benefit from the service to call our office. 3. By contributing
and encouraging your organizations and friends to make contributions. (All contributions are tax exempt) 4. Support our fundraising events. 5. Shop at
Ralphs Market – which credits us a small rebate from your purchases
– Just sign on to their web page at www.Ralphs.com,
click on community contributions, enter our NPO no. which is 82591, and follow the
prompts. Schools/Parents: Student
volunteers are always welcome at Meals on Wheels of west LA. Younger students
can help with various tasks in our office or be paired with one of our
regular drivers or with a parent to help deliver food to our clients. High
school and college students who already are licensed drivers are especially
appreciated as reinforcements to our regular corps of volunteers. We will be
happy to record your community service hours for you and send that
information to your school.
