Support Meals on Wheels millage
With the upcoming Aug. 6 vote to renew the Iron County Meals on Wheels nutrition program millage, I am writing to inform area residents of just how much these dollars impact our area seniors.
In just one year, the Meals on Wheels millage funds provided for 23,407 meals to be delivered to 128 homebound seniors.
The millage dollars cover food costs, staffing, vehicle gas and maintenance, insurances and other related expenses.
Local seniors rely on these nutritious meals to remain living at home independently with social support and dignity. The senior community is grateful to the taxpayers for supporting this millage in the past.
