Building a Stronger Future Together – Brick by Brick
At Meals on Wheels, we believe that every meal we deliver is not just about food; it’s about nurturing community and fostering connections. Our beloved building, which has served us well for 20 years, is now in need of vital updates to continue supporting our mission. From a leaky roof to outdated plumbing, air conditioning, and kitchen equipment, these improvements are essential to ensuring that we can provide the best possible service to our seniors in East Texas.
To help us reach our goal, we are excited to launch the “Brick by Brick” Campaign. This initiative invites you to contribute to the future of Meals on Wheels by purchasing a personalized brick that will be laid in the front entryway and the volunteer entrance of our Tyler location. These bricks will not only enhance the beauty of our facility but also serve as a lasting tribute to the people and businesses that make our community special.

Volunteer Fuel Fundraiser
THIS GIVING OPTION WAS CREATED SPRING 2022 BECAUSE OF THE HIGH COST OF FUEL. IT REMAINS A VIABLE WAY TO SUPPORT OUR MINISTRY TO HELP VOLUNTEERS WHO STRUGGLE TO PAY FOR THE FUEL COST OF VOLUNTEERING.
Often times, fuel prices can hinder a would-be volunteer from signing up or a current volunteer from continuing to serve. If you would like to help support the Volunteer Fuel Fund, we can purchase gas gift cards for their use to ensure they can begin or continue delivering meals. Thank you!
Help keep our mission in motion! Click here to donate to the volunteer fuel fund.

THIS FUNDRAISER WILL RESUME MAY 1, 2025

Donate here to help sponsor fans to help seniors beat the heat this summer. You could potentially save a life with your gift.
