Miles for Meals on Wheels 2022

Our team is preparing for this year’s Miles for Meals on Wheels 5K and we hope you’ll join us!

Unable to participate but still want to help you may also:

WASI will host the 5K both in-person and virtually this year. Our online auction begins June 4th-18th. We ask for your support with a donation of a gift card or an item for the auction. Alternatively, you may choose to become a sponsor by making a financial contribution; 100% of the money raised goes toward seniors receiving meals. Your logo will be displayed during the two-week auction and our social media marketing plus any marketing during the 5k. Auction donations are appreciated by May 5th. The Virtual 5K will run from June 1-25 and our In-Person event will be held outdoors on Saturday, June 25. On that Saturday, sign-in begins at 9 am and the race/fun run starts at 10 am. The online auction will be the kick-off for our biggest fundraiser of the year, which as you know benefits Meals on Wheels of Mat-Su.

Our goal is to raise $75,000 to fund 7,500 meals. Our Meals on Wheels program will deliver over 120,000 meals, which is a 41% increase from last year. With your help, we can continue to provide a daily wellness check by our staff and trained volunteers. Besides a daily meal, this greatly-needed human connection is a lifeline for a lonely and sometimes forgotten group. Whether it is because of income, lack of mobility, or social or cognitive roadblocks, for many, Meals on Wheels is an integral part of their diet, budget, and social life. It may be the only full meal they get in a day. It really is that important. Together we can deliver!

WASI appreciates the many foundation and corporate sponsors for the 2022 Miles for Meals on Wheels. We – and the seniors they help serve – are grateful!
