Meals on Wheels San Francisco — ABC 7 News, Allies in Action
November 27, 2023Jim Oswald

For San Franciscans like 84-year-old Carmen, the simple pleasure of a home-cooked meal was not a possibility — until Meals on Wheels came into the picture.

“I often feel lonely. Very lonely, so I try to be very strong,” says Carmen. Carmen looks forward to her meal deliveries by Meals on Wheels drivers like Ken Leaf.

We are privileged to serve nourishing meals and hope to Carmen and thousands of seniors each day. Our work would not be possible without your support! Please make your gift today so that we can provide more nourishing meals and services during the holidays and beyond to those in need!
