Kindness has a way of coming back around. ??

"I'm getting some good meals here. One of my favorites is the Swedish Meatballs." —Odell, Meals on Wheels San Antonio client A good meal does more than fill a plate. It nourishes, comforts, and brings joy. ?? At Meals on Wheels San Antonio, our mission really is to serve our neighbors the best we can to ensure they stay healthy and can age independently in their homes, which is right where they want to be. But right now, too many of our homebound neighbors are still waiting for this support. Join us to #EndTheWait because no one should have to wait for a nourishing meal and a friendly visit. ??: bit.ly/end-the-wait

This week, 20,000 meals were made possible thanks to Marathon Petroleum Corporation! ?? On top of sponsoring all of these meals, their team also joined us in delivering meals to some of our clients on Thursday! Their generosity and support for our mission are greatly appreciated! ?? #TogetherWeCanDeliver #MoreThanAMeal #MealsOnWheelsSanAntonio

Yesterday, Sheriff Javier Salazar took time to deliver meals and check in on homebound neighbors, ensuring they had both a nourishing meal and a friendly visit. ?? Every meal delivery is #MoreThanAMeal—it’s a moment of connection and a wellness check to help keep our older and disabled neighbors safe and cared for. With clients all over Bexar County and South Central Texas, you can help neighbors in our community by signing up to volunteer or giving a donation. Because together, we can #EndTheWait!

At Meals on Wheels San Antonio, we appreciate the dedication of team members like Adrian Espinoza, our Marketing and Communications Specialist who has been delivering #MoreThanAMeal for going on 3 years and truly embodies our mission! ?? Adrian believes that "every individual deserves a meal and companionship to look forward to," which is why he gives back to Meals on Wheels San Antonio. What he loves most about working here is the strong sense of teamwork across all departments, reflecting our commitment to both our clients and the community. When Adrian isn't using his creative talents to help communicate our mission here at Meals on Wheels, you can probably find him at a record store. He loves to collect vinyl and has 233 records, to be exact. He also loves to explore quaint towns, like the Scranton-Old Forge area that he visited this past Fall. Thank you, Adrian, for everything you do for Meals on Wheels and our clients!

We need your voice ?? With the annual appropriations process underway, it is essential to urge Congress to protect and increase funding for Meals on Wheels programs nationwide. For more information on how you can contact your Senators and Representatives, visit https://lnkd.in/ght3Ja4r ??
