The Home Delivered Meals program strives to bring properly balanced, nutritious meals to elderly, sick and handicapped homebound people within St. Cloud and Waite Park city limits.

Dedicated volunteers from area churches, businesses and service groups deliver the meals. The volunteers also serve as a daily contact for meal recipients.

The program’s numerous advantages include:

• Helping people stay in their own homes or apartments longer
• Providing support for people who are recently discharged from the hospital or nursing home
• Improving the nutritional status of those served
