Meals on Wheels and More (MOWAM) provided more than one million healthy meals to the homebound elderly and disabled community in Austin in 2009. Due to increased demand, however, MOWAM was forced to institute a waiting list last June for its namesake meal delivery program, Meals on Wheels. Currently, 150 individuals are on the waiting list, looking for the resources they need to continue living independently.
Join G-Team to help Meals on Wheels and More meet this increased demand and provide a week’s worth of meals to at least 20 homebound neighbors. Each $15 donation provides meals for one community member for one week. With this type of assistance, people can stay in their homes longer, delaying the need for costly nursing homes and assisted living facilities.
Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100% off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.
