As our dedicated volunteers, you know how much your delivery means to the seniors you serve. The nourishing food and comforting friendship you provide so much more than a meal for those who are isolated and alone. During the month of March, our volunteers made an even bigger impact for our vulnerable seniors in Dallas County!

The 21st annual March for Meals campaign ran through March 31st, and you can help spread awareness about senior hunger in Dallas! We were grateful for the many groups, elected officials and individuals who stepped up to the challenge.  Thank you also to Empire Baking and Asian Mint for hosting give back events raising vital funds to support VNA Meals on Wheels.

If you are part of a group that is interested in a Day of Caring, please contact our Volunteer Engagement Supervisor, Tracie Demery at demeryt@vnatexas.org or 214-689-2653 to schedule an event. You may also call the Volunteer Line at 214-689-3222 for assistance.

As we begin celebrating the 50th anniversary of VNA Meals on Wheels, we want to thank YOU–our dedicated donors and volunteers. It is only with your support that the daily miracle of delivering meals is possible and ensures we can continue delivering hope for the next 50 years. Thank you for being part of our mission helping people age with dignity and independence at home. We invite you to celebrate with us by taking the volunteer challenge!
