Donate
One of the simplest ways to help is to make a financial contribution. Your gift helps to ensure that every senior who needs Meals on Wheels gets it.
Concrete assets such as a real estate donation (link to Real Estate Donation page) or gift of stocks and bonds (link to Stock, Bond and ACH Transfers page) could also be part of your giving plans.
Your thoughtful foresight can help ensure support for our nation’s most vulnerable seniors for years to come while providing you with additional financial benefits that might include federal income tax and estate tax deductions.
