Adopt A Senior
For almost 4,000 people in Delaware 60 years of age and older the provision of a daily meal is an everyday concern
Each year Delaware’s Division of Services for Aging & Adults with Physical Disabilities provides state and federal funding to five Delaware agencies that prepare, monitor and deliver nearly 600,000 hot, nutritious meals to homebound seniors throughout the state of Delaware. Nearly 35,000 of those meals are funded through the Adopt A Senior Appeals.
Why is giving now more important than ever?
- Rising fuel and food costs
- Lack of increased Federal Funds
- Secondary liquid meal supplements are no longer covered under the Federal Funds
The Adopt A Senior Holiday Appeal takes place from November through January. A Mother’s Day appeal takes place in May. Funds from these campaigns are allocated by the Board of Director’s Allocation Committee four times a year insuring that no eligible senior in Delaware is on a waiting list to receive a meal.
