Aug 10 Meeting

SPEAKER: Joe Kirtcher, President of  Buxmont Meals on Wheels

Bux-Mont Meals on Wheels serves home-bound clients in the Warminster, Hatboro, Horsham and Upper Moreland areas. They provide one hot and one cold meal per day, Monday through Friday each week. Meals are prepared by the Warminster Hospital food service organization and packed and delivered by volunteers.Our clients are asked to pay a nominal fee for service. However, the organization will subsidize payments for those unable to afford the basic fee. Wegman's, WaWa and Carrabas supply food to meals on Wheels and the Hatboro Horsham School district supplied drinks last year. People are referred through their families, social Services Organizations, Hospitals  and as a result of advertisements. Not only does Meals on Wheels provide food for clients but they also serve as health and safety checks especially for those who live alone. They currently have about 80 volunteers but there is certainly room for more. We are proud to present a check for $4000 to Meals on Wheels. Past Presidents Rob Galbreath and Mike Brookshire with Joe.
