The Golden Age Centers is proud to be a part of the Meals on Wheels Association of America.   Through our partnership with the Meals on Wheels Association we work to eradicate senior hunger in our community.

We are working every day to put an end to senior hunger by delivering nutritious meals and providing compassion to seniors in our community.

To receive home delivered meals call 216-481-4959.

Deemed as the most "Esteemed Gathering of the Year", the Golden Achievement Awards dinner was held May 1st at the Country Club.  Many thanks to the attendees who paid tribute to this year's honorees and bid on wonderful silent auction items, all for the benefit of the Golden Age Centers Senior Hunger Fund.   The Senior Hunger Fund provides funding for an annual average of 280,000 group and home delivered meals to thousands of low income seniors in Cleveland.

A public celebration was held to recognize the donation of a new, fuel efficient Ford Transit Connect vehicle by the Meals on Wheels Association of America.  This home delivered meal van will greatly enhance the Golden Age Centers ability to cost effectively deliver an average of 750 nutritious meals daily to homebound, often low income seniors, in Cleveland.

A partnership with the Cleveland Foodbank, through the newly implemented Commodity Supplemental Food Program, will provide an average of 500 boxes of shelf stable nutritious food monthly to homebound and low income seniors in our community.   We are proud to be a partner in this pilot program in Cuyahoga County.
