Providing Meals. Empowering Independence. Keeping Seniors in Their Homes.
What is Meals on Wheels?
We deliver hot, healthy, ready-to-eat meals daily in addition to frozen meals and breakfast bags to older adults and persons with disabilities in our community.
Our clients can receive meals for a short duration while they’re recovering from a hospital stay, as respite care for their family who usually provides meals, or on an ongoing basis each weekday.
Horizons, A Family Service Alliance is an equal opportunity provider.
More Than a Meal
If there is a Meals on Wheels client that you’re concerned about and needs help connecting to additional resources in the community.
Serving Linn, Johnson & Washington counties
Sign Up to Receive Meals on Wheels
Please fill out form to request Meals on Wheels service. Our Client Services Associate will follow up once we receive the request to determine eligibility.
Make a Meal Contribution
Intended for current clients, a meal contribution is an additional act of support and appreciation for received services. Your contribution helps offset our costs and allows us to serve as many clients as possible. A contribution is encouraged, but we will never deny meals to someone that is unable to contribute.

Volunteer Voices
“During a delivery I advised the client that I had missed her the week before. She began telling me her story of why she wasn’t home. She had been in the hospital due to a suicide attempt. I listened to her and spent a few minutes with her. She needed someone to talk to. I was her person. So along with a hot meal, I gave her a sense of purpose also and as always, I left her with a smile on my face wishing her a very happy day.”
