With all that is going on in our world right now, our Insight Wealth Strategies team decided to lend a helping hand for our community this November and donate towards Meals on Wheels of Contra Costa, as well as the Meals on Wheels of Greater Houston. The goal of this organization is to provide meals to the increasing number of homebound elders who are unable to get healthy daily meals. Meals on Wheels is dependent on the contributions provided by individual contributors and charitable organizations. “[They] subsidize over 415, 000 nutritious meals annually, delivered to frail, nutritionally at-risk homebound elders in their residences in Contra Costa County.” In Houston the “program provides home-delivered meals to approximately 4,900 homebound seniors and disabled adults in five counties – Harris, Galveston, Montgomery, Liberty and Chambers.”
The Insight Wealth Strategies team has personal connections to the Meal on Wheels organization and felt that donations are even more critical during this unpredictable year. Our CEO, David Chazin, stated, “I choose Meals on Wheels to honor my father, Steve who at 80 was involved with the local chapter in Southern California. He would spend part of his days delivering meals to other elderly and less fortunate folks.”
Kim Conley, Head of People at Insight, added that “the Meals on Wheels organization plays a significant role in maintaining the comfort and health of the older citizens in our communities, and I am very proud to be able to help contribute to that. Personally, after losing my mother last year, one of the worries I didn’t anticipate was the inability for my father to eat nutritious meals. For those of us who have a parent or parents who can’t cook their own warm healthy meals, and may not live nearby, Meals on Wheels has provided me and my siblings with peace of mind when we can’t be with him. Supporting this cause will be something that my family will continue to do for a long time, as we are very grateful.”
To learn more about Meals on Wheels or make a donation, please visit their site at: http://mealsonwheelsofcontracosta.org/about.html and https://www.imgh.org/meals-wheels-greater-houston/. Since being founded in 1990 Meals on Wheels are the only charity in the county raising funds to deliver meals to this rapidly growing elderly population.
Organizations like Meals on Wheels provide an essential need to the growing elderly population in our community and we couldn’t be prouder to donate towards this cause. We hope to continue our contributions and make a difference in our community.
