Why We Participate
So often seniors are an overlooked segment of our population, particularly in places like Palm Beach County where food insecurity may not be an obvious problem. Meals on Wheels of the Palm Beaches provides not only essential nourishment with freshly prepared meals delivered daily to Palm Beach County homebound seniors, we also provide a wellness check and a real connection for those seniors to the outside world through the companionship of volunteers. Since launching in 2015, the “Pie It Forward” campaign of Meals on Wheels of the Palm Beaches has raised more than $700,000 and provided over 150,000 meals to homebound seniors in our community. MOWPB receives zero government funding and relies solely on the goodwill of our community and fundraisers like this to keep the wheels in motion on its mission. FPL is committed to serving those in our local communities and this is a perfect example!
