Beginning the week of May 4, Meals on Wheels of Greenville will be helping to distribute meals at three sites throughout the week: Tuesdays at Beech Springs Church (125 Cooley Bridge Road, Pelzer, SC 29669), Thursdays at Center for Community Services (1102 Howard Drive, Simpsonville, SC 29681), and Saturdays at Berea Friendship United Methodist Church (8001 White Horse Road, Greenville, SC 29617). Each site will be open from 10:30am – 12:00pm on a first come, first serve basis.
There are specific requirements that must be met to receive free meal services from the Emergency Senior Nutrition Program. To receive the meal pack, you must be a senior citizen (60+) or a caregiver taking a meal to a senior citizen, and you must reside in Greenville County. All meal recipients must show a state issued ID and provide a name, address, and phone number at pick-up. If you are picking up a meal for a senior resident, please have their ID with you. Only two meal packs are allowed per car (10 individual meals). Individuals are permitted one pick-up per week.
Senior citizens are at the forefront of the COVID-19 crisis, and the partnership between Meals on Wheels of Greenville, Senior Resources, and BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina allows us to continue to provide and expand the services they rely on.
