Working to eliminate hunger and isolation for Chicago’s seniors and individuals with disabilities.

Meals on Wheels Chicago envisions a community in which all basic needs are met and barriers to achieving independence are eliminated. We achieve this by raising both funds and awareness to support home meal delivery to senior citizens and people with disabilities who are in need.

2 days until we’re back for the annual Celebrity Chef Ball

This is what last year looked like. Thirteen chef teams, each one cooking a 6-course tasting menu for its own pod of guests. Plates flying out of every corner of the room. And every bite helping put meals on the table for homebound seniors across Chicago.

Friday, we do it again.

See you there, Chicago. 🥂
