This March Is Dine Out Month to Stamp Out Senior Hunger

Leave the cooking and dishes at home and DINE OUT in Ewing in March

Enjoy a meal out at your favorite Ewing restaurants while supporting Meals on Wheels of Mercer County in March.   Ewing restaurateurs have answered the call to support Meals on Wheels of Mercer County while raising awareness of the plight of senior hunger in our local communities in the 2019 Dine Out to Stamp Out Senior Hunger event.  This is a significant fundraising event for Meals on Wheels in Mercer County, where 10% or more of the proceeds from participating restaurants goes to helping them provide meals to the homebound residents of Mercer County who cannot afford to contribute to the cost of their meals.

“The services we provide are a lifeline for seniors of Mercer County and the need is rapidly increasing,” said Sasa Montano, CEO of Meals on Wheels of Mercer County.  Together, we can keep our senior neighbors well-nourished, feeling safer, and more connected to our community as they age.”

Meals on Wheels of Mercer County is a comprehensive nutrition program committed to providing nutritious meals, and related services, which are designed to promote the independence, dignity, health and well-being of our homebound participants. Founded in 1973, they served over to 75,000 meals in 2018 to homebound individuals in our County.  They currently serve close to 300 participants in the areas of Ewing, East Windsor, parts of Hamilton, Hightstown, Princeton, Trenton and West Windsor - with 12% of those served living in Ewing Township. The Meals on Wheels of Mercer County office also calls Ewing home, as they are located in the Hollowbrook Community Center.
