The Wood County Committee on Aging has been awarded a $4,000 grant from the Meals On Wheels Association of America (MOWAA) under the sponsorship of Subaru of America.
As part of the Subaru of America "Share the Love" event, the Committee on Aging worked with LaRiche Subaru during the 2012 holiday season to deliver hot, nutritious meals to North Baltimore area homebound seniors.
"We were pleased for the generous support Subaru of America has given to Meals on Wheels programs, such as ours.  This is the third consecutive year we have had the opportunity to partner with Subaru dealerships in our area for this event," said Angie Bradford, director of Food Service for WCCOA.  "This grant award will be used to assist in the expansion of our home delivered meal program; throughout Wood County."  
MOWAA is awarding $200,000 in grants to 66 Meals On Wheels programs across the country that involved dealership employees in their efforts to serve homebound seniors in their communities.
To receive more information about the home meals call (419) 353-5661 or 1-800-367-4935.

I can't think of a more deserving organization that WCCOA. I am glad to know their services are available to the seniors of Wood County.
