MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – March for Meals is a national campaign during the month of March, and the Middletown Senior Center plans its annual event on Saturday, March 28.
There will be a fundraiser one-mile walk starting at 11 a.m., an indoor craft fair from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., plus hamburgers, hot dogs and nachos available from noon to 1 p.m.
Join them and help raise money and awareness for senior hunger.
All proceeds benefit the Meals on Wheels Program that delivers balanced nourishing meals each day to homebound seniors age 60 and above.
Middletown delivers more than 800 meals per month to housebound seniors in Hidden Valley, Middletown and Cobb, and the need continues to grow.
Although partial funding comes from the Area Agency on Aging and Redbud Healthcare District, subsidization from the community in the amount of about $28,000 per year is required to fully fund this expanding need. That’s why the Senior Center has fundraisers year-round.
Middletown Senior Center is located at 21256 Washington St.
