Wayne County Community Foundation Awards Grant to Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties

We're again the beneficiaries of the generosity and community spirit of one of our local foundations, as the trustees of the Wayne County Community Foundation recently awarded $4,826 to Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties for a refrigerator/freezer unit.
The refrigerator/freezer will be installed at our Wooster nutrition site. We've had a presence there for more than 20 years, and each weekday we deliver more than 100 meals on six delivery routes. The new unit will allow for more versatility with food storage and prep in Wooster.
Meals On Wheels was one of 15 organizations receiving grants from the foundation this spring. The grant was made with funds from the Marjorie B. Newland Memorial Fund and the David and Carol Briggs Unrestricted Fund.
We're grateful to the trustees of the foundation for their support as we continue to serve the needs of homebound individuals in Wooster and Wayne County.
