VISITS IN THE
MONTH OF MAY
JESSICA
Dear Foodnet Community,
May is officially Older American’s Month. The Administration for Community Living announced that the theme for Older Americans Month is
“Age Out Loud.” The idea behind the theme is to give aging a new voice
to ensure that our elders are heard. By 2050 the older adult population
is expected to nearly double, representing a new generation of older
adults that are living longer and actively engaging in their communities.
On behalf of Foodnet, we thank you for choosing to be part of our program, and we recognize all that you do for our community.

Last month, we shared concerns about the proposed Federal Budget
and possible impact to Foodnet. We are continuing to advocate and
educate our influencers and decision makers about the important services Foodnet provides. Congressman Tom Reed recently announced
his support for Meals on Wheels. He also shared publicly that his mother was a Meals on Wheels recipient. We continue to feel hopeful about
the future of our services.
