History, Mission Statement, Value Statement and Value Proposition

OUR HISTORY:

Meals on Wheels of the Palm Beaches, Inc. (MOWPB) was incorporated in 2010 by our founder, Charles B. Ring, III. Charlie saw the unmet needs of the homebound in our community and began MOWPB as part of the solution to address those needs. Deliveries began in 2011, and in that first year we delivered approximately 4,000 meals with the help of 15 volunteers. By the end of our 2021-22 fiscal year, Meals on Wheels of the Palm Beaches will have delivered approximately 90,000 nutritious meals and wellness checks to homebound seniors throughout Palm Beach County.

MISSION STATEMENT:

Nourish and enrich the lives of homebound seniors by delivering fresh food daily with compassion and love

VISION STATEMENT:

A nourished and loved independent senior community

VALUE PROPOSITION:

Provide nutrition and peace of mind to homebound seniors, with daily chef prepared meals delivered by compassionate dedicated volunteers


WHAT WE DO:

Our meals are freshly prepared daily in our kitchen by our Chef.

The meals are packed and delivered five days week by our team of dedicated volunteers. Our three-part program ensures that, in addition to a warm smile, our clients receive a nutritious meal, a wellness check, and follow up with emergency contacts as needed. This provides an essential human connection which is often lost when seniors or disabled adults live alone.
