Fayette Senior Services is once again preparing for the busy holiday season. Each year the Meals On Wheels program delivers close to 30,000 meals to individuals throughout the county. During the holidays, Fayette Senior Services is not required to provide meals, but for the past five years the agency has elected to deliver a five-day frozen meal pack to those who are on the regular Meals on Wheels route. This year, they are adding a three-day Y2K meal pack. To support this extra effort, the agency asks for financial assistance from the community.
Individuals can sponsor one meal or more.
