Building Impact

A $2 million renovation of our Providence Headquarters

Upon its completion, our renovated headquarters will offer Meals on Wheels of RI’s clients, team, and stakeholders an updated building that fully reflects our organization’s dedication to our community and ensures we can continue to meet the changing needs of Rhode Island’s food insecure.

In 2022, Meals on Wheels of Rhode Island celebrated its 20th million meal and commenced a three-year planning period Our strategies for preparing for our next 20 meals include investing in our infrastructure.

In 2023, we engaged Saccoccio & Associates Architects to conduct a feasibility study of our Providence headquarters. This building, located at 70 Bath Street in the Smith Hill neighborhood of Providence, is key to how our mission flows to every community across Rhode Island, including Block Island. The feasibility study demonstrated that with reasonable renovation and repairs, our headquarters could be a modern and efficient space that would allow MOWRI to better serve its clients and community.
