FEED A SENIOR - FILL YOUR HEART
Meals for Seniors has registered for this year’s Holiday Give! This also marks the official start of The BottleDrop’s 2024 Holiday Give event, which runs through December 2.
All funds raised through BottleDrop (via Blue Bags or online donations from Green Bag accounts) will receive a 20% match. BotttleDrop will calculate the total amount Meals for Seniors raised from November 15 – December 2, and then will add the 20% bonus in one lump sum to our account after the campaign ends. BottleDrop will notify us by email when our matching funds have been added, no later than December 30.
BottleDrop also encourages us to enter their social media contest and share how our organization uses funds raised through BottleDrop! On weekdays throughout the campaign, except for Thanksgiving Day, BottleDrop will select a total of 50 lucky winners to each receive a $100 prize. If Meals for Seniors is a winner, BottleDrop will comment on our winning post and deposit prize funds into our account the same day.
BottleDrop is also looking for feedback on what motivates Meals for Seniors to donate via BottleDrop! Please fill out this short feedback form and share your thoughts with BottleDrop.

Please consider a donation to assist the senior citizens of North Tillamook County.
The need for nutritious food for our senior citizens continues to be of serious concern. Many seniors on fixed incomes are not getting the healthy diet they need in these times of inflation and continuing rise in food costs. Meals for Seniors, Inc. has been providing freshly cooked meals to seniors, 52 weeks of the year, continuously for 20 years. Our deliveries may be the only meal many of our seniors receive on a given day. In 2023 we prepared 13,155 meals of which 7,964 were delivered to our vulnerable homebound seniors in North Tillamook County, and 5,191 meals were served in our dining room.
Our program is supported solely by donations from individuals, organizations, grants and our own fundraisers. We do not receive on-going local, state, or federal funding. We are a volunteer driven organization and would very much appreciate your support this year.
Meals for Seniors, Inc., is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, and your donations are deductible to the extent provided by law.
For questions contact Teri at 503-317-8967 or E-Mail: https:mealsforseniorsinc@gmail.com
$4 buys 1 meal at our dining hall site | $24 buys 6 meals for a homebound senior, enough for a week's worth of meals and snacks.
