Danny Murphy, Sacred Heart Men’s Club Secretary and Meals on Wheels Committee Chairman, and his wife Kathy load up their van at the McCauley Center with meals, bread and milk for delivery. |
During the month of February men from the Sacred Heart Men’s Club deliver the Meals on Wheels to Village residents. Teams of two, club members or a member and his spouse or friend, arrive at the McCauley Center about 9 AM. Here they receive a list of all the deliveries that are scheduled for that day along with a book containing maps to each address. Hot meals are kept in warming containers that are loaded into the car or van that the member is using. In addition, on certain days, milk and bread for the week are also loaded and delivered.
Currently there are approximately 20 addresses within the Village that receive the daily meals and the delivery involves driving about 65 miles. The Sacred Heart Men’s Club has been assisting with Meals on Wheels deliveries for a number of years and plans to continue this service in the future.
