DuPage Senior Citizens Council - Meals on Wheels (with Richard Gere)

Volunteers help package and deliver freshly prepared meals each weekday to homebound seniors, who are unable to shop or cook for themselves. The 3 part Meals on Wheels program ensures that in addition to a warm smile, seniors will receive a nutritious meal, a Well Being Check, and emergency follow up if needed. This thorough program provides an imperative human connection, too often lost when seniors live alone.

Meals are low in sodium and cholesterol and may be adjusted to fulfill diabetic and vegetarian needs. DSCCs dietician is available for assistance to seniors with specific nutritional concerns.

All meals meet the 1/3 Dietary Reference Intake established by the US Government.
