Hundreds of people living in Pittsburgh’s East End communities don’t know where their next meal is coming from. From infants and children to a growing number of seniors, EECM reaches out to all those who are experiencing the pain – and the desperation – of hunger.
MEALS ON WHEELS prepares and deliver nutritious meals to frail / homebound residents every weekday. Besides healthy meals, recipients can look forward to a friendly visit, and family members can be assured that someone is checking on their loved ones.
Service areas include East Liberty, Friendship, Garfield, Larimer, and Lincoln-Lemington. A minimal donation is requested for this service. Meals are prepared and delivered out of the kitchen at East Liberty Presbyterian Church, largely through the efforts of a dedicated volunteer pool.
