At Nourish Meals on Wheels, we believe every meal has the power to brighten an older adult’s day. Beyond delivering fresh, nutritious food, we foster lasting connections between clients and volunteers, bringing warmth and reassurance to those we serve.
That’s why we created the 12 Days of Giving program—to turn meals into merry moments during the holiday season. For the 12 weekdays before Christmas, clients receive a special gift alongside their meal: greeting cards, poinsettias, games, self-care items, and more, each chosen to provide mindfulness, comfort, and holiday cheer.
This year, thanks to Next with Kyle Clark’s Word of Thanks campaign, our community has come together to raise more than $52,000 to support this heartwarming program. This incredible generosity means that as the number of older adults we serve continues to grow, we can continue making sure every client receives thoughtful holiday gifts and reminders that they are not alone.
One client shared just how much these gifts mean:
“These gifts make me feel special. I’m alone for the holidays, and I’d never get anything like this. Thank you!”
We are deeply grateful to Kyle Clark, the Next team, and everyone who donated for making this year’s 12 Days of Giving possible. Your kindness ensures that older adults in our community feel valued, remembered, and connected during the holiday season.
