Meals on Wheels 1993 - present
One of the most rewarding things I have ever done is to be a driver
for Meals On Wheels. I drive the Tinicum route once a month. We pick
the meals up at the Briarleaf nursing home and deliver throughout rural
Upper Bucks. This is such an important service to our residents, especially
those who live outside of towns and in isolated areas. Meals on Wheels
allows senior citizens to remain in their homes, rather than relocating
to nursing homes. It also provides welcome social contact for those
who are homebound.
We first began in 1993 in an unofficial way with a few people making
meals and , delivering them to our neighbors. After a year or so we
became the official Meals on Wheels- Tinicum, picking up the meals at
Doylestown Hospital and delivering them to residents in Tinicum Township.
We are now part of the Meals on Wheels of Central Bucks. They always
need drivers and I encourage you to give this worthy cause a try. Call
Meals on Wheels of Central Bucks at 215-345-6065.
