AgeWell Services Partnering with the City of Roosevelt Park to Offer Senior Curbside Meal Distribution
MUSKEGON, Mich. – AgeWell Services of West Michigan and the City of Roosevelt Park work together to provide Senior Curbside Meal Distribution with support from Senior Resources and Muskegon County Senior Millage.
They will be providing meals to seniors aged 60 and over in Muskegon County, specifically Roosevelt Park, on Friday, February 12 from 12 – 2 p.m.
Meals will be served to adults 60 and over. Meals will be available for curbside pickup at Campbell Elementary School. 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:
Friday, February 12, 2021
Campbell Elementary School
1355 Greenwich Rd, Roosevelt Park, 49441
12:00 – 2:00pm
The Senior Curbside Meal Distributions were not an original AgeWell program. This was 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.
