Our Mission

The mission of Haywood County Meals on Wheels is to provide nutritious meals, friendly visits, and safety checks that enable homebound seniors to live nourished lives with independence and dignity while remaining in their home. 

COMMITMENT 

Meals on Wheels of Haywood County has been committed to our mission of serving seniors since 1975.  Over time we have adapted and changed to sustain and improve the program, and we will continue to do so to for the betterment of those we serve.  We are committed to:

  • Serving any qualifying community member who needs our services.
  • Maintaining, training, and sustaining happy and engaged volunteers.
  • Preparing high quality, tasty, and nutritious meals.
  • Providing effective communication to ALL who interact with our program - recipients, volunteers, grantors, donors, and community collaborators.
  • Delivering an empathetic, effective, efficient, and high quality program to all who come in contact with Meals on Wheels.

This commitment is key to the effectiveness and success of our program.  With your help, in combination with our dedicated team of volunteers, we will be able to uphold this commitment for decades to come.
