Home-Delivered Meals
Meals on Wheels of RI’s Home-Delivered Meal Program was established in 1969 to help ensure the physical and mental well-being of homebound older adults.
Today, we offer home-delivered meals as the only nonprofit meal delivery program of its kind in Rhode Island, serving approximately 1,500 seniors statewide, including Block Island, each weekday.
Each weekday, our drivers deliver complete and nutritious, fully-prepared meals that meet one-third of of our clients’ recommended daily dietary intake.
Providing much more than a meal, we also ensure client safety through a daily well-being check, and work to lessen feelings of isolation and loneliness with a friendly visit with one of our drivers.
Some clients’ meals are provided through grant and donor funding. We also offer Private Pay to clients seeking an immediate need for home-delivered meals and for those who may not meet established program eligibility.
