More Than A Meal Study (MTAM)
On March 2, 2015, Meals on Wheels America released a study comparing the
experience and health outcomes of older adults in three categories:
daily traditional meal recipients, once-weekly frozen recipients, and
individuals on a Meals on Wheels waiting list. This study of over 600
seniors, funded by AARP Foundation and conducted by researchers at Brown
University, implemented a groundbreaking approach to investigating the
impact of meal service delivery on homebound seniors receiving Meals on
Wheels. The study’s findings validate what we’ve all known for decades
anecdotally through firsthand experience: that Meals on Wheels does in
fact deliver so much more than just a meal. Click here for the MTAM Infograph, or here for the MTAM Executive Summary, or here for the MTAM Full Report.
Subaru Share the Love Campaign
Our Senior Nutrition and Meals on Wheels program has received funding from the 2015 - 2016 Subaru of America Share the Love campaign through our membership in the Meals On Wheels Association of America. Flagstaff Subaru (www.flagstaffsubaru.com) employees have helped deliver meals to fight senior isolation and hunger. And, for every new Subaru vehicle sold during the campaign Subaru donated $250 to the purchaser’s choice of participating charities. By the end of this, the eighth “Share the Love” event, Subaru had donated $1,000 to Community Services Senior Nutrition program, and a total of $50 million to charity over the past six years – including delivery of one million meals nationwide to seniors in need.
Other Information
We are always in need of volunteers! Contact Melinda Tracey if you have an interest, or need more information.
