CASEY: Meals on Wheels girds up for 31st annual fund-raising luncheon

“Let’s Give Lunch” began modestly in 1991, raising $6,000 to help provide nutrition for some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Now it hauls in tens of thousands

CASEY: Luncheon-fundraiser for Meals on Wheels passes the 30-year mark


Now’s the perfect time to begin thinking about an annual fundraiser you’ve read about here before. It’s a luncheon that started outdoors three decades ago and later moved inside. And that was hardly the last change.
The tickets are $20. The proceeds from each ticket sold will buy three hot meals for needy senior citizens, delivered to their homes.
This all started way back in 1991, when the Local Office on Aging held a fundraiser to augment federal and state government spending for Meals on Wheels. Volunteers deliver those, five days per week, to 550 low-income senior citizens who live in the Roanoke region.
