4. The kosher meals on wheels program was developed in response to an unmet need in the community. Delivery is provided by volunteers and is available to the homebound elderly within a specific geographical area. Meals are kept to a nominal cost, which is actually priced to be below the cost of preparing and plating the meal. Almost all of the 31,282 home-delivered meals are delivered by a dedicated corps of volunteers who willingly give their time and services for this program. For many meals on wheels recipients, this is the one nutritious, fortified meal they receive daily, and because of an inferior public transportation system and their own inability to drive, this program is a lifeline that enables these meal recipients to remain living independently in the community. This program serves 166 clients.
