    The meaning of:
    • Meals on Wheels is a programme that delivers meals to individuals at home who
    are unable to purchase or prepare their own meals.

    • The name is often used generically to refer to home-delivered meals programmes,


    not all of which are actually named "Meals on Wheels". Because they are
    housebound, many of the recipients are the elderly, and many of the volunteers
    are also elderly
    The history:
    • ‘’Meals on Wheels’’ originated in the United Kingdom in 1943. (In the Second
    World War)

    • The name "Meals on Wheels" derived from the delivery method of bringing meals.

    • Some of the volunteers are Tina Bodaghi and Bill Becker.

    • In this video we watch the food being made and its delivery to the respective

    Curiosities
    • As a volunteer, the first thing you need to do is check
    in the volunteer quiasque.

    • Today the Meals on Wheels People produces 7300


    nutritious meals four days each week in a 14000
    square-foot commercial kitchen located in
    Multnomah Village
