I was listening to the news this morning and there was a story about the huge growth in population of seniors and pre-seniors in Central Texas.
The population is growing substantially, but the services are not keeping pace. As a result, more cases of neglect are being reported and most of the neglect cases are "self-neglect". Sadly, many elderly do not want to ask for help or don't know how to get help.
This week I donated $25 to Meals On Wheels and More in Austin, Texas. Not only do they provide meal services to the homebound, but they also help with home repairs, make friendly phone calls to check in on their clients and provide vet transportation for clients' pets (I love that one).
My $25 donation will provide 10 meals and other services to the beneficiaries of Meals On Wheels and More.
