How will you uplift seniors this month?

May is #OlderAmericansMonth! This year marks the 60th anniversary of celebrating America’s seniors. First proclaimed by President JFK, this month is an opportunity to raise awareness and elevate the diverse needs of our #aging neighbors.

Happy National Pet Day! 🐶🐱🐰Did you know that some of our neighborhood programs also offer pet food delivery? Ani-Meals (@AniMealsTC) operated by @CES_Minnesota delivers pet food once a month to Meals on Wheels clients in Minneapolis!

Plenty of sun to end the week but a low pressure system will create strong winds by Saturday. This along with dry air could create dangerous fire weather conditions Saturday afternoon. Rain showers move in Saturday night, lasting into Monday as breezy winds continue. #mnwx #wiwx

New study confirms #MealsOnWheels is a powerful tool in addressing the needs of people living with dementia. And, it's more than healthy food. The findings also show delivery drivers are often a critical source of social interaction for homebound seniors.
