Organization Information

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide nutritious meals, wellness checks, and caring contact to elderly, disabled homebound, and others in Tulsa and surrounding areas.

Description

We are the oldest and largest home-delivered meal program in Oklahoma. MOWMT delivers hot and frozen meals to homebound individuals Monday - Friday using volunteers, from 11 AM to 1 PM. We also fight the triple threats of ageing (social isolation/loneliness, loss of independence, and lack of nutrition/outright hunger), by providing additional caring contact through our other programs: PAWS pet food delivery, Home Safety, and Wellness Calls. Together, We Can Deliver!

I have been volunteering with MOW for approx. 2 years, and I enjoy the fellowship with the other volunteers and the clients we serve.

I participated in creating cards for Valentine's Day that would be delivered to recipients of the food from Meals on Wheels, and everyone in the office was so kind and helpful. It was a fun way to get involved and brighten the day of others. I will definitely be volunteering some more with them!

Meals on Wheels isn't just about delivering a meal but is also about caring for one of the most vulnerable populations, offering friendly support with each interaction.

The process of delivering meals to the homebound is so easy. I just pick up my meals at my site, grab the list of where I'm going and if I get lost, I ust use the GPS in my cell phone to find an address. It took me about an hour to deliver to 10 people.
