Whether it’s a one-time donation or continuous monthly support, every contribution goes a long way to ensuring our local seniors are looked after.

Many hungry seniors living in Prince George can’t afford to put food on the table. Some local seniors are even resorting to eating cat food. Others only have enough budget to live off one box of cereal per week. Frequently, low-income seniors are faced with the devastatingly dilemma to either purchase groceries or prescriptions.

Equally as concerning is that the majority of the Prince George population, especially people and local businesses who would love to step up and help seniors, have no idea this is happening. This extraordinary initiative is coordinated by a local hero of mine, Nicole Currie, who I met in late-February. The program delivers daily healthy meals to vulnerable seniors in Prince George. Right now, there’s a waiting list – because of funding, of course – for seniors to qualify for the Meals on Wheels delivery program.

One donation of $180 will feed a senior for an entire month! Now is the time where seniors are relying on the generosity of fellow community members.
