Four years ago, we challenged ourselves to think differently – to look at what we do as healthcare partners. Today, we are more than a meal. Working together with hospitals, nursing schools, government agencies, and forward-thinking funders, Meals on Wheels Diablo Region is transforming the lives of seniors living in Contra Costa County. The meal is the entre into the home. The home is where health happens.
Fifty years of strength, service, and growth. We will continue to challenge ourselves in the next 50 years to adapt to the needs of local seniors.
Thank you for becoming part of the journey.
Together, we can deliver.™

The night was clear, the stars were out, new and old friends got together and celebrated for a cause... Meals on Wheels Diablo Region's (MOWDR) 50th Anniversary! On Saturday, May 12th, MOWDR took over Blackhawk Museums in Danville and our Gala went off without a hitch. Guests bid on over 100 live and silent auction items, ate delicious meals catered by Scott's Seafood, and danced the night away to Top Shelf Classics. Thank you to everyone who helped make our 50th Anniversary Gala a night to remember! And a special shout out to all of our fabulous donors, sponsors, and volunteers.
