At Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland, we strive every day to be "more than a meal" to our clients.
Delivering meals is only one side of all that we do. Meals on Wheels volunteers offer social interaction and connections that our clients often need on a daily basis. It can be difficult living alone and often times our clients become lonely. Meals on Wheels volunteers help to fill that void by delivering "meals and a smile."
