members and business leaders, who sampled the area’s best wines and
cuisine, and enjoyed excellent live music. The event raised nearly
$30,000, which helped fund almost 83,000nutritious
meals to Yolo County seniors.
Meals on Wheels:
Last year we served over 82,000 noontime meals
(approx. 375 per day) to almost 1,400 seniors, 60 years and older,
throughout Yolo County-Davis, West Sacramento, Winters, Esparto,
Knights Landing and Woodland.
Meals on Wheels is a world-wide concept with
organizations everywhere, who provide nutritious meals to people who
are homebound and/or disabled, or would otherwise be unable to
maintain their dietary needs. The daily delivery consists of a meal;
a nutritionally balanced meal to eat at lunch time.
In an effort both to cover costs and to
maintain the elders' sense of dignity, the program asks a small fee based on the individual's ability to pay. These payments
are entirely voluntary, no one is refused a
meal due to their inability to pay.
Our seniors must rely upon us,
and our program relies on our sponsors, donors and volunteers to
help us serve the needs of our Yolo County seniors.

Our Vision

Our Mission
To nourish and enrich the lives of individuals in
Yolo County
with emphasis on those age 60 and older, by providing
nutritious meals
to active and homebound people; thereby, promoting their health,
well-being and independence.
