Sponsorship Opportunities

Why partner with Meals on Wheels?

Founded in 1968 by the Ottawa City Union of The International Order of The King’s Daughters and Sons, we have grown from our grass roots beginnings where during the first week of operation 29 meals were served to 15 people.  In 2017 over 114,000 meals where served to over 1600 clients will the help of more than 400 volunteers.

We are the largest Meals on Wheels program in the Champlain region and are a dedicated group of staff, board, delivery and office volunteers with a well established reputation. Read more…

Christmas Meal Sponsorship 2020 – Help us reach our $2000 goal!

Meals on Wheels provides Christmas meals to over 100 clients ever year. As many are homebound and live alone, it is a service we are proud to offer. This year, because of COVID, delivering meals on Christmas Day will be even more special as many may not be around family or loved ones. We are looking for sponsors to help support our Christmas meal deliveries.

This year, our goal is $2000 which will help cover the cost of meals plus a special gift for each client. Can you help? Read more…
