Citymeals-on-Wheels Charity Profile
Citymeals-on-Wheels raises private funds to ensure no homebound elderly New Yorker will ever go a day without food or human company. Last year, our family of contributors helped us bring over 3 million nutritious meals to 18,000 frail aged in every borough of New York City. In addition, 1,511 volunteers collectively spent 40,357 hours visiting and delivering meals to New York’s frail aged.
Mission Statement: Citymeals-on-Wheels provides a continuous lifeline of nutritious food and human company to homebound elderly New Yorkers in need, thereby helping them to live with dignity in their own familiar homes and communities.
Thanks to our partnership with the New York City Department for the Aging, along with gifts designated for administrative expenses, we can promise that 100% of all other donations will be used entirely for the preparation and delivery of meals.
