Donations made to Meals on Wheels through Nov. 1 will be doubled

Carl C. Anderson, Sr. and Marie Jo Anderson Charitable Foundation awards MOWSS a challenge grant of up to $30,000

(ROCKWALL COUNTY, TX – Sept. 5, 2017) If you have an elderly neighbor, friend or family member, you can play a key role in making their lives easier by calling Meals on Wheels Senior Services of Rockwall County. In doing this, you could be providing some valuable help.

MOWSS is literally the difference between remaining in their own homes and needing to relocate to a nursing facility. The nutritious meal, friendly visit and safety check help them cope with three of the biggest threats of aging: hunger, isolation and loss of independence. Research proves that when seniors have the right support, they gain greater quality of life, need fewer hospital stays and live longer.

Currently MOWSS is in need to raise extra funds this year because the demand for senior services continues to grow as the aging population increases. The Carl C. Anderson, Sr. and Marie Jo Anderson Charitable Foundation have awarded MOWSS a challenge grant of up to $30,000. The community’s continual support for the organization enhances the quality of the services to make immediate impacts in the lives of homebound seniors. Now that support will be doubled!

MOWSS needs your help; all donations are tax deductible and very much needed and appreciated by our elders who rely on our generosity. Donations can be made online at rockwallmealsonwheels.org, brought or sent directly to MOWSS, located at 950 Williams Street Bldg.C Rockwall, TX 75087 / 972-771-9514.

YOUR DONATION THROUGH THE ANDERSON FOUNDATION WILL BE DOUBLED UNTIL NOVEMBER 1st!
