March for Meals 5K 2021

March for Meals was a great success and we couldn’t have done it without YOU!

There are too many seniors in Georgia that are left behind, alone and hungry, struggling to stay independent and healthy. With the support that Meals on Wheels delivers, we can keep seniors in their own homes, where they want to be.

Over $6,946 was raised with 133 people joining our virtual 5K this year. With these funds, we’re able to provide 992 additional meals this year! This is all thanks to YOUR help!

Congratulations to our 2021 March for Meals 5K Winners!!
