🌟 Volunteer Highlight: The Eanes ISD Team 🌟 Since 2014, their dedicated team has been volunteering with Meals on Wheels Central Texas, continuing their passion for helping the community after previously supporting local food banks. Their team consists of 26 enthusiastic students, with around 8 volunteering at a time, alongside 7 supportive staff members. ❤️ "What drives us is the joy of giving back to the elders in our community. It’s heartwarming to see our students connect with the elderly, sharing smiles and support. They truly love being a part of this impactful work! Not only do we find immense rewards in our efforts, but we also cherish the opportunity to introduce our students to such meaningful service. We are incredibly grateful for the friendly and helpful staff at Meals on Wheels who make our experience even more fulfilling." 💕 #EanesISD #MOWCTX #CommunityService #Volunteering #ElderSupport #GivingBack

We are incredibly thankful to have you as an integral part of our community. Your service and compassion have made a profound difference to our neighbors. Your generous spirit shines brightly, and we are truly grateful for all that you do. 💚💙 At Meals on Wheels Central Texas, our mission transcends mere meal delivery; it embodies compassion, connection, and community. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to our dedicated volunteers and supporters who make this vital work possible.
I received a new T-shirt. At first glance, it might not seem like much, but it made me pause and reflect. For four years, I’ve been wearing the same shirt while volunteering with Meals on Wheels’ PALS program, and I didn’t even notice how worn it had become. Sometimes, you don’t realize the impact of time until something new comes along to remind you of the journey. This is my fourth year delivering food and supplies to pets who are, in many ways, caregivers themselves. I started volunteering because I’ve experienced firsthand the joy, comfort, and companionship animals bring into our lives. Knowing I can support these pets—who, in turn, support their people—is such a rewarding experience. This new shirt gave me a moment to reflect on the meals delivered, the vet appointments arranged, and the meaningful conversations shared. It reminded me of the ripple effect small acts of kindness can have. There’s always a way to give back—you just have to find what speaks to your heart. Meals on Wheels Central Texas
