The National Meals on Wheels Association presented its annual “Mayors for Meals” day on Wednesday, March 18, 2009.  City of Rocklin Mayor Peter Hill participated in delivering meals in Rocklin along with Seniors First volunteers Ann Oliver, Janna Gerard, Therese Workman, Chuck Lindal, and Tony Micheals. 

The goal of the National Meals on Wheels Association is that “no senior go hungry.”  Meals provide 1/3 of the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for adults, are low in fat and prepared with no added salt. Food is served hot and ready-to-eat in aluminum containers. Seniors can use a conventional oven or toaster oven to reheat. No seniors will be denied a meal if unable to donate the recommended three dollars per meal.

To be eligible for this program, seniors must be Placer County residents, 60 years or older, homebound, unable to drive and unable to prepare meals.
