MAKING A DIFFERENCE THROUGH CONNECTION

“As a driver, I look forward to chatting with clients. Sometimes, I might be the only social contact some people will have all day.

Every client has their own needs, like one client whom I’ve never actually met – I’ve only heard her voice.

I’m instructed to put her meal in the fridge. I’ll call out when I arrive to let her know I’m there, and she’ll respond.

She’s always appreciative, but sometimes I can tell from her voice that she’s feeling a bit down or things are untidy.

I’ll share my concerns with our Client Services team so they can offer additional support. It’s so important to take that extra step and look out for clients like her.”
— Marcel, volunteer

Why Donate?

1. Nourishing the Community

Your donation directly contributes to providing nourishing meals for individuals who may be facing challenges related to aging, illness, ability or financial hardship. By supporting charities in Edmonton like us, you're not just giving a meal; you're offering comfort, connection, and dignity.

2. Enabling Independence

Many of our clients are seniors or individuals with cognitive or physical limitations, and your support helps them maintain their independence and stay comfortable at home while still ensuring they receive the nutrition they need. It's about fostering a sense of well-being and allowing them to live life to the fullest.

3. Ensuring Affordability

Cost is a major barrier for many of our clients. At Edmonton Meals on Wheels we aim to keep meal prices affordable despite the recent surge in consumer food and energy costs. Your donation helps us to offset costs and maintain our current fee structure.

4. Community Connection

Edmonton Meals on Wheels is not just a meal delivery service; it's a link that connects people. Your donation allows us to reach farther into our community and advocate for those who need it, creating a network of care and support that goes beyond the plate.
