Congregate Meals

Congregate Meals is a program located at the Greenewood Center in Jefferson, IA that serves meals to seniors in the community. They have had great success in terms of participation, with a total of 21,000 meals served in the past year. However, the program is facing financial struggles, as operating funds have been reduced and the board has had to dip into emergency funds to meet expenses. Despite these challenges, the program continues to provide delicious meals on a budget, thanks to the dedication of the volunteer cooks and the generosity of local gardeners who share their produce. The program relies heavily on volunteers for both meal preparation and home delivery, and they are always grateful for the support of the community.
