Community News |Sep 15, 2020|2 min read

MUSKEGON, Mich. – AgeWell Services of West Michigan and YMCA of Greater Grand Rapids & Muskegon YMCA’s Veggie Van are hosting two upcoming Senior Curbside Meal Distribution during the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic with support from Senior Resources and Muskegon County Senior Millage.  

 

AgeWell Services of West Michigan and YMCA of Greater Grand Rapids & Muskegon YMCA’s Veggie Van are continuing their work together along with community partner locations to provide meals to seniors aged 60 and over in Muskegon County. Two dates and locations on September 22nd  and September 24th from 12:00 to 2:00 pm.

 

Meals will be served to adults 60 and over in Muskegon County. Meals will be available for curbside pickup at two locations on two different dates. The curbside pickup offers a quick, drive-through option to keep seniors and volunteers safely separated during the COVID-19 outbreak. Seniors that cannot drive or get out of the house can send someone to “proxy” for their meal.

 

WHEN & WHERE:

Tuesday, September 22, 2020

Dalton Township Hall

1616 E. Riley-Thompson Rd, Muskegon, MI

12:00 – 2:00pm

Thursday, September 24, 2020

Blue Lake Township Hall

1491 Owasippe, Twin Lake, MI

12:00 – 2:00pm

 

The Senior Curbside Meal Distributions are not a regular AgeWell program. These were created once the initial stay at home order was put in place, in order to fill a void. The senior population is one that is most at risk of COVID-19. This program has been a “blessing” to many that deal with food insecurities and some that are just too scared to go to the grocery store.

 

Donations for these meals are accepted and appreciated. Without community support we would not be able to continue serving and giving; without your contributions, our seniors would be isolated, unhealthy, and malnourished. Please consider giving to our COVID-19 Emergency Fund to keep these wheels moving. Visit www.agewellservices.org or, if you need help making arrangements, please contact us at 231-412-7966.
