With the help of volunteers, the Council on Aging makes deliveries of supplemental food to homebound seniors (Mobile Meals).
On a donation basis we supply:
- Hot precooked daily meals, delivered by volunteers in Colfax and Pullman..
- Frozen prepared meals for rural portions of Whitman County.
- Nutritional liquid products (in a variety of flavors) - for individuals who require additional supplementation to their regular diet or have special dietary needs.
This particularly helps people who:
- Cannot cook for themselves, and depend on outside help.
- Are injured, disabled, or otherwise cannot prepare food.
- Have other issues that prevent them from being properly nourished.
Volunteers make it possible by:
- Using their own car to pick up meals at a meal distribution center.
- Delivering the meals to local residents' doors.
- Collecting and returning old trays that were used to hold hot meals.
Council on Aging Volunteers deliver hot mobile meals to
Colfax and Pullman residents 365 days a year
