The Health Trust Meals on Wheels program delivers hot and frozen meals to homebound seniors and adults throughout Santa Clara County. Meals on Wheels is in need of volunteers to help deliver meals to our clients, as well as provide companionship. For many of our clients, the Meals on Wheels volunteer is the only person they may see all day, or even all week, especially during these times. Meals on Wheels volunteers enable many older adults to remind independent and bring peace of mind to family and friends.

Mission Statement
Our Mission: To build health equity in the Silicon Valley.
Description
Our Vision:
The Health Trust believes every Silicon Valley resident should have the opportunity to live a healthy life.
How:
We at The Health Trust believe that if Silicon Valley is a community where innovation is changing the world, then it also can be a community where innovation changes the lives of everyone - especially our most vulnerable residents - for the better.
As we strive to make our vision reality, we reflect the values of Silicon Valley. When we tackle a problem, we take the broad view. We rely on expertise, partnerships and best practices to generate solutions that will have the greatest impact on those we serve. We invest in projects that are sustainable, show measurable results and provide the greatest return on investment for the community.
With a strong emphasis on prevention, we focus our work through three initiatives: Healthy Living, Healthy Aging and Healthy Communities. Through direct services, we are helping one person at a time. And through policy advocacy and grantmaking, we are changing the local environment to promote healthy eating, healthy aging and healthy living.
