Program areas at Meals on Wheels San Diego County

Meals on Wheels San Diego County serves all of San Diego County, including the 3,049 square miles of rural and unincorporated areas. Of all seniors served, 84% are considered extremely-low to low income according to the 2017 income guidelines by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). We subsidize more than 63% of the costs of meals, delivery, and other services provided, regardless of a seniors' ability to pay. Further subsidies are provided for seniors who are experiencing severe financial difficulties. For fiscal year 2022, we served over 4,500 homebound seniors throughout San Diego County with 624,887 meals, daily safety checks and friendly visits using 3,571 trained volunteers. Also, during the past year, we continued to meet an ongoing significant increase for our services during the Covid-19 public health emergency. Meals on Wheels clients report improved health, security and independence. For millions of Americans, Meals on Wheels programs across the country are literally the difference between remaining in their own homes and needing to relocate to a nursing facility. The nutritious meal, friendly visit and safety check help them cope with three of the biggest threats of aging: hunger, isolation and loss of independence. Research proves that when seniors have the right support, they gain greater quality of life, need fewer hospital stays and live longer.
