Small gestures, big impact; HHS students assist senior adults in Meals on Wheels program


It might seem like a small gesture, writing a few words on cards to be hand-delivered to people in our community.
But ask Tammye Pirie, executive director for Blount County Community Action Agency, what it means to her clients and she knows the value and meaning behind each gesture. CAA’s programs include Smoky Mountain Meals on Wheels, which provides nutritious meals to people in Blount County who are 60 and over.
Volunteers take meals out to the homes of these older citizens, many of them already isolated before this pandemic hit. Pirie said now that the older citizens are staying in more and not being visited by family, it’s become extra tough on them.
