Today's elderly nutrition programs in the U.S. trace
their roots back to Great Britain during World War II
(1939). When German planes bombarded English soil,
many people in Britain lost their homes and their
ability to cook meals for themselves. The Women's
Volunteer Service for Civil Defense responded to this
emergency by preparing and delivering meals to their
disadvantaged neighbors. They also brought
refreshments in canteens to servicemen during WWII.
The canteens came to be known as "Meals on Wheels."
Thus the first organized nutrition distribution
program was born. Check out the Meals on Wheels
Association of America (MOWAA) website for the chapter
in your area. The organization provides meals to the
elderly and homebound on a sliding scale or for free,
if necessary. MOWAA is a great place to volunteer! For
more information, go to www.projectmeal.org. Perhaps
international chapters of this organization could be
developed following their model.......
