Salisbury, MD – MAC’s March for Meals campaign seeks to raise awareness of the home-delivered meals (Meals on Wheels) program and how it delivers more than a meal to local seniors in need of this most basic human necessity – food.
Meals on Wheels also delivers a safety check, which is especially critical for seniors living alone, as well as a friendly visit to help combat loneliness and social isolation.
This year’s March for Meals also offers a number of tasty opportunities to support the program: 31 Days of Raffles, featuring some fantastic local food and food-related prizes!
Tickets are on sale NOW, both online and at MAC ‘s front desk.
The cost is $31 per ticket. Purchasing a ticket gives you one entry into each of the 31 raffle drawings… Even if you win, your name stays in the drawing pool!
Prizes include:
- Rise Up coffee package
- Greene Turtle gift cards
- Cookbook collection
- Breakfast for 4 at the Bayside Skillet
- Ice Cream Lovers’ package
- Cash prizes and more!
