Unable to prepare your meals or get out of the house?
We can help! Dietert Center provides Meals On Wheels to approximately 300 homebound Kerr County seniors every weekday. Friendly volunteers will deliver a meal right to your door if you’re temporarily or permanently unable to shop and prepare meals for yourself. Meals On Wheels can be requested through email or call our Reservation Line: (830) 896-8117. A trained, volunteer assessor will visit you to ask questions for the required paperwork and determine any other special ways we may be able to assist you. Meals are available by donation to Kerr County residents age 60 or older who meet eligibility requirements. We don’t put people on a waiting list – we deliver nutritious meals and connection to fight malnutrition and isolation. |
Support Meals On Wheels with a gift to Nutrition Services!
Your support provides a healthy lifeline that helps keep seniors living independently in their homes. Along with the hot meal, a dedicated volunteer brings human connection and compassion. Sometimes they are the only visitors our clients will see that day.
The majority of Dietert Center's fundraising effort goes to Nutrition Services to cover the cost of providing these meals, which cost $8.40 each to produce. Approximately 47% of the total expense is reimbursed through initiatives created for this purpose. The remaining expense is funded by generous donations. Our shortfall within Meals on Wheels is projected to be $303,592 this year! With your help we can continue providing uninterupted service to our seniors in need.
