Meals on Wheels is on a Roll!

So, what have you been doing?  We have been quite busy over the last month.

Renovations are under way at our offices to convert some unused space into a distribution site for Meals on Wheels.  We chose Tyler Construction as our contractor, and they have been hard at work for us.  This video does a great job of summing up what’s happening. When complete, the 900-square foot facility will provide a more efficient and convenient space for volunteers to pack and pick up meals for daily delivery. It will also include an external walk-in freezer and space for our Senior Care Pantry and Pet Pals program.

The other recent big event was the first unveiling of our plans for a food truck.  Yes, a food truck!  The food truck’s signature item will be breakfast tacos, with other items offered throughout the day. We’ve named it Señor Resources, to tie in with our name, while also indicating the type of cuisine. All proceeds from the truck will be used to support Meals on Wheels and other programs at Senior Resources.  We think the food truck will be a rolling billboard for us, and increase awareness about the needs of seniors in our community.  WLTX did a great story on the food truck.  You can also get to know Señor Resources on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@senorresources).

We look forward to the future as we open our own Meals on Wheels distribution site, and as we put Señor Resources on the road.  Look for us around town!
