This winter, many older adults in our community will face the impossible choice: heat their homes or buy food. They shouldn't have to make that choice and through your generosity they won't have to.

Together, we can bring nutritious meals and moments of connection to those in our community. Give today at https://secure.givelively.org/donate/southwestern-indiana-regional-council-on-aging-inc/meals-on-wheels-southwestern-indiana
