Galveston Island Meals on Wheels, Inc.

Galveston Island Meals on Wheels, Inc. All meals are delivered by our dedicated team of volunteers. Galveston Island Meals on Wheels, Inc. Today, GIMOW delivers 200 meals daily.

Galveston Island Meals on Wheels delivers lunchtime meals to homebound Island residents who cannot prepare meals due to illness, disability, or age - regardless of their ability to pay. (GIMOW) is a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to delivering hot, nutritious meals each weekday to qualifying homebound and elderly citizens of the City of Galveston. Each meal is delivered by com

munity volunteers with kind words and a smile. At the time it began operations in 1974, the program delivered just 10 meals per week. Since its inception, more than 500,000 meals have been delivered to the elderly and homebound citizens of Galveston. Nearly 50,000 meals will be delivered this year alone.

Thank you Katie & Mary Jean from St. John Lutheran Church for delivering meals this week!

Thankful Thursday!

We are grateful to Charlotte and other volunteers for jumping in to help stage the meals for pickup today. And for the 20+ people who showed up to deliver meals in the rain. You are heroes!

217 meals out the door. That means 217 homebound neighbors are being greeted with a delicious meal and a kind & caring smile. We love what we do!
