Seniors’ Meals Rely on Volunteers Across Two Regions
In Front Royal and Baltimore areas volunteers organize hot lunches for seniors under the federal Nutrition Program for Seniors. In Front Royal 60 seniors at United Methodist Church eat three days weekly with birthdays, talks, and social time, while volunteers deliver meals to 65 homebound seniors in Warren County. In Baltimore, 1,200 meals weekly across 25 sites are managed by Eating Together with 200 volunteers at Broadway House coordinating calls and weekly shopping trips, plus activities after lunch. The programs rely on unpaid volunteers for over 80 percent of participants, supported by a federal Administration on Aging budget exceeding $3 million weekly.
