Meals on Wheels Chicago

Meals on Wheels Chicago Working to eliminate hunger and isolation for Chicago’s seniors and individuals with disabilities.

Meals on Wheels Chicago envisions a community in which all basic needs are met and barriers to achieving independence are eliminated. We achieve this by raising both funds and awareness to support home meal delivery to senior citizens and people with disabilities who are in need.

A caring community makes a difference.

When we look out for our older neighbors, we help make sure they have nourishing meals, meaningful connection and the support to remain independent at home.

The Feed a Neighbor Fund brings our community together around one simple belief: no one should age into hunger.

Kindness can start with a meal.

For an older Chicagoan, that meal can mean nourishment, independence and one less day spent feeling alone. It’s a reminder that they matter and their community hasn’t forgotten them.

That’s the heart of the Feed a Neighbor Fund.

Neighbors show up for one another.

For an older adult living alone, a meal delivery can be one of the few visits they receive that day. It brings nourishing food, a friendly face, and the comfort of knowing someone cares.

That’s what the Feed a Neighbor Fund is about: bringing meals and connection closer to home.

No one should age into hunger.

One in six older adults faces food insecurity, and many are living alone. For homebound Chicagoans, a Meals on Wheels Chicago delivery provides nutritious food, a friendly visit, and the comfort of knowing someone is looking out for them.

The Feed a Neighbor Fund was created to help more older adults receive the meals and connection they need to remain healthy and independent in their own homes.

Together, we can be the neighbors who help.

No one should age into hunger.

For too many older Chicagoans, living independently also means facing hunger and isolation. Meals on Wheels Chicago delivers more than a meal. Each visit brings nourishment, connection, and the reminder that someone cares.

The Feed a Neighbor Fund helps ensure our neighbors can continue aging at home with dignity and support.

Be the neighbor who helps.

"I could not eat without Meals on Wheels Chicago."

That's not an exaggeration from one of our neighbors, it's the reality for many older adults in Chicago dealing with mobility challenges, chronic illness, or isolation. A knock on the door with a hot meal can be the difference between eating that day and not.

Your gift to the Feed a Neighbor Fund keeps that knock on the door happening. Become the neighbor who keeps showing up.

There's a difference between helping once and being someone a neighbor can count on.

When you set up a monthly gift to the Feed a Neighbor Fund, you're not just funding a meal, you're funding a wellness check-in that catches a problem early, a few minutes of conversation for someone who might not talk to another person that day, and the quiet reassurance that someone is coming back next week too.

Become the kind of support that doesn't stop. Set up your monthly gift today.

Here's the math behind the number: after rent and bills, a lot of Chicago seniors are left with about $47 a week for everything else, food, medicine, personal care.

We're asking for that same amount, but monthly. A recurring gift of $47 a month gives Meals on Wheels Chicago something a one-time donation can't: predictability. It means we can plan deliveries, staff wellness checks, and keep showing up for the same neighbor, month after month, instead of scrambling gift to gift.

Small monthly gifts add up to real stability. Consider making yours recurring.
