Each weekday, Meals on Wheels of Bandera prepares and delivers hot, nutritious meals in microwave-safe containers to homebound seniors living in Bandera County. Our meals, which are delivered by a trained staff driver or volunteer, are often the primary source of nutrition received by our clients.

All recipes are approved by a registered dietician, and all meals are prepared in the commercial, high-volume Silver Sage kitchen by our talented, experienced culinary staff. The same meal is served to our Meals on Wheels clients and those who come to the Center to eat lunch.

But Meals on Wheels delivers more than a meal. It helps to prevent hunger among our elderly neighbors and improves their ability to remain healthy and independent in their own homes. Daily interaction with volunteers and staff drivers also helps to combat loneliness and provides a valuable safety check. MOW saves taxpayer dollars by allowing seniors to stay at home and out of nursing facilities.

Eligibility Requirements:

1. Must be 60 years of age or older
2. Must be homebound, unable to cook for themselves, and lack outside support

*On a limited basis, disabled individuals under 60 may be eligible for meals if funding is available.

Doctors, community service agencies, relatives, friends, or individuals can make a referral. During business hours, please call the Center at (830) 796-4969.
