Meals on Wheels of Lehigh County, Inc.

Meals on Wheels of Lehigh County is a 501(c)(3) charitable not-for-profit community service organization registered with the Pennsylvania Bureau of Charitable Organizations. The agency was founded by a grassroots group who decided it was unacceptable for homebound adults living in Lehigh County to go hungry as long as there were caring people who could prevent it. On February 1, 1971 Meals on Wheels of Lehigh County began serving nine clients on three routes. Almost 45 years later, years later, we deliver nutritious meals each weekday with the help of 1020 volunteers to more than 450 homebound seniors and adults with disabilities on 33 routes. The volunteer visit serves as a wellbeing check and a social connection. We also provide grocery shopping services, pet food for clients' pets, and emergency meals.
