Our North Fulton Mayors and Fulton County Commissioners showed their support for Meals on Wheels and North Fulton seniors during Community Champions Week. All delivered a meal to an older adult in their community or helped to pack out meals for delivery.
“We were honored to have our Mayors and Commissioners participate in our annual March for Meals Community Champions Week,” said Executive Director Carrie Bellware. “They are in an excellent position to help raise awareness for the growing number of seniors in need of nutritious meals and address senior hunger and isolation.”
As you can see from the photographs below, a great time was had by all.
Throughout the month, Meals on Wheels providers like Senior Services North Fulton, celebrate March for Meals in their local communities. Community Champions Week is a component of March for Meals that utilizes the engagement of prominent figures in the community to help bring attention to the cause.
March for Meals is a nationwide celebration during the month of March, organized by Meals on Wheels America for the last 13 years. It seeks to raise awareness for not only the vital network of Meals on Wheels programs operating in virtually every community across the country, but also the needs of the seniors they collectively serve.
