Purpose
|
|
| |
Torrance-Lomita Meals On Wheels is a non-profit volunteer
community service organization that provides home delivered meals for the
house-bound, without regard to age, race, sex or religion. We are a
temporary service for the convalescing, the handicapped, the aged or frail,
the chronically ill or the dying, who are unable to prepare adequate meals
for themselves. |

Meals are prepared, cooked and packaged by St. Vincent Meals
on Wheels, Los Angeles. Each delivery consists of two meals: one hot meal to be eaten at
midday and a cold meal for the evening. The meals are delivered between noon
and 1pm, five days a week, Monday through Friday, except on holidays. Meals
are planned by a registered dietician and are nutritionally balanced to
include each of the four main food groups and provide two-thirds of the
Recommended Daily Allowance. Trained volunteers donate their time as well as
the operation of their vehicles to deliver the meals. |
