Over $11,000 is headed to the Chatham-Kent Meals on Wheels program thanks to a local women's group.
100 Women Who Care Chatham-Kent selected the local Meals on Wheels program at their latest meeting in August, and recently presented them with a cheque for $11,525.
"Keeping seniors well-nourished and safe in their homes during the pandemic really highlights the critical role Meals on Wheels plays in the lives of seniors," said Jessica Smith, Executive Director of St. Andrew's Residence.
Since August 2016, 100 Women Who Care CK has donated more than $250,000 across 20 charitable programs in the community.
Their next quarterly meeting will take place on Wednesday, November 17 at 6 p.m. at the Retro Suites Derby Event Centre. For more information visit www.100WomenWhoCareChathamKent.com.
