About Meals On Wheels
Catholic Charities has been providing "Meals on Wheels" to older adults in southern Nevada since 1975. We are the only home-delivered meal program for seniors in Las Vegas that provides meals at no cost to the client. Demand for our services is at an all time high. We continuously seek new strategies and adapt our program to meet the high demand for our services; our waiting list typically has from 600 to 800 individuals.
Annually 474,000 meals are prepared from scratch; then packaged, sealed and labeled; and then bagged and delivered in freezer trucks by our caring delivery drivers. Donations of pet food are also delivered for our client's beloved companions.
