IM Meals on Wheels
IM Houston delivers 1.5 million Meals on Wheels every year, along with warm smiles to isolated seniors in need. Thanks to our Meals on Wheels for Greater Houston and Galveston County program, homebound seniors may receive home-delivered meals. We deliver to an average of 4,300+ homebound seniors and adults with disabilities daily.
Over 97% of our seniors tell us the program helps them maintain or improve their health, and remain independent in their own homes. Seniors with pets may sign up for the Animeals program, to receive free supplemental pet food.
We are able to provide this service through a combination of government grants and private contributions. Our partners include the Harris County Area Agency on Aging, Texas Health and Human Services, Texas Department of Agriculture, and the Texas Veterans Commission.
