Cities Employees Deliver Meals On Wheels
Employees at Cities Credit Union have kept busy with a route Cities adopted earlier this year with the White Bear Lake Meals On Wheels Program. Every Thursday, employees of Cities Credit Union deliver meals to individuals in the community who are unable to manage their own food preparation. “We’ve found this to be so enjoyable and we’ve met a lot of wonderful people," stated Shelly Hammons, Cities Loan Specialist. Meals On Wheels, a White Bear Area Senior Program, delivers hot nutritious meals Monday through Friday during the noon hour. In 2006, Meals On Wheels served 18,400 meals to people in need.
“Our 304 active volunteers make the senior center and programs
possible,” stated Barb Green, Center Coordinator. The Senior Program also provides transportation with the Lionmobile, taking individuals to medical appointments and grocery shopping. Other programs include Senior Connection (Outreach, Intergeneration, LionsHELP and Spring/Fall Cleanup programs) and the Senior Center Activities.
If you would like to get involved or would like more information contact the Senior Program at 651-653-3121.
