Elder Services of Berkshire County has received a grant of $4,00009:03AM / Thursday, August 06, 2009
North County - Elder Services of Berkshire County has received a grant of $4,000 from Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation's James and Robert Hardman Fund for North Adams, Clarksburg and Florida.
The funding is designated for Elder Services' Nutrition/Meals on Wheels program, which provides hot, nutritious meals to over 1,000 Berkshire seniors each weekday. Over the past year, 2008, Elder Services prepared and served over a quarter-million meals - over 200,000 were delivered as Meals on Wheels to frail seniors who might not otherwise have had a hot meal or a friendly visit, and the remaining meals were served to seniors attending Elder Services' 14 group lunch sites, located throughout the county.
The Nutrition/Meals on Wheels program has been under-funded for years, even as cost of preparing, serving, and delivering the meals continues to grow. Community organizations such as the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation provide Elder Services with much-needed support to address the program deficit.
This grant from Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation’s James and Robert Hardman Fund will help ensure that all North Adams, Clarksburg and Florida seniors who need home-delivered meals will continue to receive them.
Elder Services Meals on Wheels program is essential to the agency's mission to provide Berkshire seniors the opportunity to live with dignity, independence and
self-determination, and to achieve the highest possible quality of life. |
