MIFA Meals on Wheels
This program, with the help of up to 100 volunteers, provides 3,300 hot, nutritious lunches for homebound elderly and seniors at 25 congregate sites each weekday. MIFA’s largest program has been awarded the highest possible accreditation conferred by the Meals on Wheels Association of America.
Eligibility
Clients, who are homebound or at congregate sites, must be nutritionally at-risk seniors (over age 60) due to illness or disability and reside in Shelby, Fayette, Tipton, or Lauderdale counties.
Currently, our homebound Meals on Wheels client base is at capacity. We are not accepting home-delivered meals clients at this time. However, we are accepting applications for new clients at congregate meal sites.
To apply for congregate meals, you must complete an application in person at the site nearest you.
Congregate sites are listed here.
