Foodnet serves hot nutritious meals every weekday at four community meal sites, where participants enjoy a meal with their friends and neighbors. Friendly outreach drivers deliver meals to people who are homebound and unable to prepare a meal for themselves. We offer:

Many participants support the cost of the meals by making a voluntary and confidential contribution, but it is not a requirement and most do not have the resources to contribute.

Foodnet Meals on Wheels serves 525 people everyday in Tompkins County with the choice of one or two meals daily. In 2007 we served more than 218,000 meals!

We depend on caring people like you to help provide daily nourishing meals and caring visits. The need for services outstrips the available government funding. About two-thirds of Foodnet’s operating cost is underwritten by federal, state and county funding through the Tompkins County Office for the Aging. The rest comes from grants, participant donations and community-minded citizens like you.

Won’t you please make a contribution to help Foodnet Meals on Wheels bring hot, nutritious meals to your elderly and disabled neighbors who have difficulty shopping and preparing meals for themselves?

Just $35 will provide a week of meals on wheels for one deserving senior. Whatever contribution you can make will be greatly appreciated and used wisely.

We look forward to your support of our work. Thank You!
