Enhancing Seniors’ Lives

Every Homebound Senior Deserves a Meal and a Friendly Face.

Across Contra Costa County, a network of nonprofits, county agencies, and community donors works together to make that possible. Meals on Wheels Contra Costa helps close the funding gap — so no senior has to wait.

TOGETHER, WE ARE ENDING THE WAIT.

Federal and county funding support the countywide Meals on Wheels network. But the need consistently outpaces what those resources cover. Founded in 1990, Meals on Wheels Contra Costa has raised more than 28 million philanthropic dollars to help close that gap, so our delivery partners can reach more seniors.
