Cabarrus Meals on Wheels Cabarrus Meals on Wheels provides home-bound seniors a hot, well-balanced, nutritious meal 5 days a week. One out of every seven seniors goes hungry everyday.

Cabarrus Meals on Wheels provides home-bound seniors and individuals with disabilities a well-balanced, nutritious meal 5 days a week. While on deliveries, our loyal volunteers also offer a safety check so seniors can stay longer in their homes and live independently. Founded in 1974, our program has grown over the years to include all of Cabarrus County. Hunger among our senior neighbors remains a serious issue. They suffer from a variety of disabilities such as severe arthritis, blindness, and heart disease leaving them frail and physically unable to prepare their own meal. Mission: To provide one well-balanced hot meal a day each weekday to individuals who are unable to prepare meals for themselves and have no one to prepare one hot meal a day for them. Impact: Meals On Wheels deliveries help individuals remain independent in their homes longer, delaying or avoiding alternate living arrangements or nursing care. Also, temporary service helps recently hospitalized clients meet their nutritional needs during their recovery period. Cost: Clients are charged for the meals on a sliding scale according to their ability to pay. Over 80% of the clients pay less than one-half the cost of the meal. Funding: Cabarrus Meals on Wheels, Inc. is funded by client fees, donations, United Way, and grants. Volunteer Opportunity: Weekday delivery meals, prepared in our kitchen by our staff, are delivered Monday through Friday between 10:30am to 1:00pm by volunteers. Adopt a Route: Business, churches or individuals can adopt-a-route, which means that they have one day a week or even the entire route and make that their own route; they have one person who is the chairperson of that route and each person works out their time among each other. We appreciate three of our local Rotary clubs (Rotary Club of Cabarrus County, Kannapolis Rotary, and Concord Rotary) for adopting routes as well as businesses like CMC Northeast and Allen Tate. We love our volunteers and can always use more help! Contact us at 704.932.3412 to set up your next delivery!

💙 that 14.7% of Cabarrus County’s population are seniors. That’s nearly 1 in 7 people in our community.

Many older adults in our community face food insecurity and malnutrition. Cabarrus Meals on Wheels helps bridge that gap by providing nutritious meals to seniors who need them.

Behind every statistic is a neighbor, friend, parent, or grandparent. Together, we can help make sure no senior in our community goes without the nutrition and connection they need. 💙 Learn more: cabarrusmow.org

💙🍽️ Yesterday marked 6 years of delivery at Penny Lane!

On October 5, 2020, the first meal deliveries headed out from our forever home on Penny Lane in Concord and made their way to homebound seniors across Cabarrus County.

Six years later, this location has been the starting point for thousands of meals, countless volunteer deliveries, wellness checks, and meaningful connections with the seniors we serve. 🥰

Every weekday, our staff and volunteers come together here with the same goal: getting nutritious meals and a friendly visit to our neighbors who count on us.

We’re so grateful for everyone who has been part of the Penny Lane chapter of Cabarrus Meals on Wheels. Here’s to six years of meals and meaningful connections! 💙

🍽️ It’s more than a meal. It’s knowing someone cares.

Ms. P shared a heartfelt note with us, and one line especially stood out: “Last but not least - you do your very best to see that I’m ok.”

A Meals on Wheels delivery brings a nutritious meal, but it also brings a friendly face, a cheerful hello, a quick check-in and the reassurance that someone is there.

For our clients, that connection can mean just as much as what’s on the plate. Meals are the reason we deliver. 💙 Caring is what makes it so much more.
