There's a lot to celebrate this month – from friendly faces at a national conference to generous partners right here at home. Let’s dive in!
Bingo Bonanza is back at The Bluffs
Mark your calendar! You’re invited to the fourth annual Bingo Bonanza at The Bluffs on Thursday, September 17. With more than $1,000 in prizes awarded throughout the night, everybody has a chance to take something exciting home. Play, laugh and win - all for a good cause.
All proceeds from this fun-filled fundraiser support local seniors in need.
We don’t gamble on seniors' well-being – that’s why our Program Director Jessica and Office Clerk McKenzie were in Vegas this month! They attended this year’s Meals on Wheels America conference where they connected with, and learned from countless people dedicated to the same cause. (They even met the CEO, Ellie Hollander!)
UPPCO is powering change for seniors
A huge thank you to our community partner, UPPCO, for their generous $1,000 donation to our Meals On Wheels program! This gift helps power the continued delivery of nutritious meals and friendly check-ins to seniors across our community.
September Menu Highlight
Our latest menu is full of local flavor and a few fun surprises. From local meat, greens and herbs, to a few local classics on the menu like pannukakku! Think you’ll find that at any other Meals on Wheels programs across the nation? See the full menu.
Allison brings valuable firsthand experience from her time as a Route Driver into her new role as Program Assessor. She cares deeply about the seniors we serve and always brings light and laughter to her visits, using her knowledge, skills, and genuine compassion to build meaningful relationships and connect clients with the resources they need beyond meal delivery. We are very lucky to have Allison on our team, and are grateful for the heart and dedication she brings to her work.

On Friday, September 4 an extra meal will be delivered to our seniors to make up for our office being closed on Monday, September 7. If you have any questions give our office a call, 1 (906) 483-1155.
