Luca Altobello is lacing up and hitting top speed for a great cause: the Mineral County Aging & Family Services Meals on Wheels Program! 🎥👇

Luca can run fast, but hunger among our seniors is a problem he can't outrun alone. For many homebound neighbors, a hot meal and a friendly face at the door mean so much more than lunch. 💛

⚡ Why your gift matters
✅ Nutritious meals. Many homebound seniors can't shop for or cook healthy food on their own.
✅ A daily safety check. Our drivers and volunteers are often the only visitor a senior sees all day.
✅ Independence at home. Meals help older adults stay in the homes and communities they love.
✅ Fighting loneliness. A smile and a few kind words can brighten a whole week.
✅ Your help stays local. Every gift supports our neighbors right here in Mineral County.

🏅 Join the Team
Our program is part of the national network supported by Meals on Wheels America. Thousands of local programs share one goal: no senior left hungry or alone. Luca is running his leg of the race, and now we need you to take the baton! 🇺🇸

🙌 Pass the baton
🍽️ Donate to keep meals moving to seniors in need
📲 Share this video so it spreads fast
💬 Tag a friend who would love to give back

Hunger for the elderly moves fast, but together we can move faster! Let's end it in Mineral County! 💪

🏁 Cross the Finish Line With Us

🏢 EXCITING NEWS from Aging & Family Services of Mineral County! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that we are expanding our Administrative & In-Home Care office! 🎊

The recently acquired former vet building on our property is being razed to make way for this exciting growth—creating more space and additional parking to better serve our community.

What this means:
✅ More room for our Case Management team — giving our dedicated staff the space they need to continue delivering top-quality care and support to local seniors and families.
✅ Prime-location for a low-traffic, small office rental opportunities for local businesses — a great chance for the community to grow alongside us while helping offset the cost of this important project.
✅ Stronger recruitment & retention — with more room to work, we'll be better positioned to attract and keep the highest-quality staff members dedicated to serving our seniors.

As a proud champion of senior citizen services, we are beyond excited to see this project come to life! This expansion is a direct investment in our ability to serve you — our clients, families, and community — for years to come. 💙

Stay tuned for updates as construction progresses! 🚧
