More than a Meal
A gift to Edmond Mobile Meals provides more than just a meal to Edmond’s homebound residents. Your donation provides authentic moments of human connection to help our most vulnerable citizens remain living independently for as long as possible. Your gift allows us to provide delicious, nourishing meals along with a friendly visit and wellness check from our dedicated volunteers. Support from the community is critical as we expand our program to serve even more seniors in the coming years.
We are funded by grants, community partnerships, client contributions, events, and private donations from churches, businesses, individuals, and community civic groups. Edmond Mobile Meals believes no senior should have to choose between food and other necessities. We serve all seniors in need regardless of their ability to pay for the service. By delivering a meal, a friendly visit, and a safety check regardless of income, Edmond Mobile Meals helps combat three of aging’s most harmful threats: inadequate nutrition, isolation, and declining quality of life. We need your help to provide food security Edmond’s seniors.

Just Feed One
Are you interested in giving monthly?

- $7/month feeds one person for 1 day
- $35/month feeds one person for 1 week
- $110/month feeds one route for 1 day
- $140/month feeds one person for 1 month
