As part of a Spring Emergency Meal and Supply Distribution, we would like to invite you, your families and friends to join us for The WOW Project – that’s Water on Wheels.
In the wake of Winter Storm Uri, Interfaith Ministries’ Meals on Wheels has seen an increase in requests for bottled water. Thanks to generous support from The Hearst Foundation and other friends, we are pleased to be able to provide a supply of bottled water to all our seniors! We now need your help in getting these cases of bottled water to our Meals on Wheels seniors.
On Saturday, May 15, we invite you to join us at:
4102 Main St.
La Marque, TX 77568
(located inside Carbide Park)
Supply pick-up will take place between 10:00 AM and 12 noon on Saturday, May 15. Each car will be sent with 5-7 cases of water (24 - 16 oz. bottles per case) and a route sheet, with the addresses and people to whom these will be delivered. There will be staff on-site that morning, to help load water in cars and to provide volunteers with route delivery sheets. Deliveries can be completed over the weekend of May 15-16, during daylight hours, at your convenience.
As with all interactions with our seniors, we ask that everyone participating in this effort wear masks at all times and adhere to our Social Distancing Delivery Protocol, which we will send to those who register, as event day approaches. Since the items you will be delivering might be heavy for our seniors, we suggest calling them prior to arrival to ask where they would like you to place the water (suggest a chair on their porch, if available). We are not permitted to enter their home, per our COVID-19 safety guidelines.
If you need us to sign off on any service hours for a member of your family, we can absolutely do so, following the weekend of these deliveries. This is a great way to get family members and friends involved in community service, so bring them along to help!
