Meal Service

Hot, frozen, breakfast, lunch or dinner – a home-delivered meal ensures clients receive needed nutrition with a friendly face and wellness check. Eight different diet types are prepared fresh daily in our own kitchens. No contracts to sign or qualifications to meet.

Volunteer

Meals on Wheels of Albuquerque has close to 400 volunteers who staff four different sites in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, participate in fundraising activities, work in the Meals on Wheels of Albuquerque kitchen and office, and/or deliver meals to the homebound to provide social interaction to meal recipients.

Give Back

Meals on Wheels of Albuquerque relies on the kindness of people like you to keep our wheels turning. Every gift, no matter how small, means another homebound person will receive nutritious meals.

Other Programs

Our Long Leash on Life Pet Program provides healthy food and more to our clients’ pets.
Our Local Harvest program allows us to purchase locally farmed fruits and vegetables for use in our meals.
Our Weekend Pantry Box program allows our low income clients to eat food on days we normally don’t deliver.
