Lakeway area churches partner with Lions Club on Mobile Meals Program

After months of preparing for a similar service, The Lakeway Church, The Lake Travis United Methodist Church, Emmaus Catholic Church, and The Presbyterian Church of Lake Travis have joined with The Lions Club to support their launch of "Mobile Meals"

 

The Lake Travis Lions Club, along with local churches, have stepped up to fill a need for meal delivery to the homebound.  Since Meals on Wheels (MoW) does not serve our community, our local Lions Club has come up with a meal delivery program for homebound residents that is really unique but follows the MoW guidelines.

Residents who are temporarily or permanently unable to prepare meals for themselves and have no one caring for them are now able to request meal delivery through the Lions Club partnering with many local churches.  Most homebound residents face a limited selection of food items that are delivered by restaurants in our area---mostly pizza and Chinese food.

Meal deliveries will be made every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday between 4:30 and 6:00pm.  The really exciting factor in the Lions Mobile Meals implementation is that the meals are prepared by some of the best restaurants in the south Lake Travis area.  In addition to Hill Country Pasta, other restaurants who have generously decided to join the program as providers are Fore, the Grille at Rough Hollow, Iguana Grill, and Little Woodrow’s.  The latest restaurants to join Mobile Meals are Café Blue, the Summit, Nik’s Italian Kitchen, and Maudie’s Tex-Mex.

In order to apply for the “Mobile Meals” program as a recipient, a food provider, or as a volunteer to help deliver meals, please call Lion Linda Davis at 512-799-2924.
