“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the
service and great food you are providing to my mother. Your invaluable
service is the difference between her being able to be in her own home
in familiar surroundings and her having to go back to the nursing home.”

Family Services’ Meals On Wheels program is the
oldest continuously operating Meals On Wheels program in Montgomery
County. In recent years we have averaged approximately 400 clients and
100,000 meals served per year. All of that has been accomplished with
a paid staff of three people and a wonderful volunteer staff of over 200
compassionate and dedicated people.
Our services normally include a hot lunch and cold
supper delivered five days a week in the Pottstown, Royersford and Lower
Perkiomen Valley areas. Most frequently the recipients of the meals
are 60 years of age or handicapped/disabled persons. This is sometimes
a temporary service during an emergency or recuperative period, and
in other situations it is provided on a long-term basis.
