Been involved as both a client and a volunteer.As a client, my father received Mobile Meals the last few months of his life. The meals help him live on his own. Meals were all delivered on time and volunteers were always able to provide feedback if asked.As a volunteer, mu wife and I delivered meals for a couple of years. We were kept well informed and appreciated by the organization.I also volunteer as part of pet food drives that Mobile Meals conducts semi annually. This demonstrates their entire commitment to their clients. Most Mobile Meals clients are shut in and their only companion is their pet. They found that the clients would share their food with the pets. This was not good for either the client, not their pets. By doing a Santa Photo Pet food drive, Mobile Meals is able to deliver pet food to their clients who need it.
Thank you for helping my mother stay in her home. We appreciate all the volunteers who make a big difference. I will share one story. My mother thought her cat got out, and the volunteer spent 30 minutes searching her fenced-in backyard. Turns out the cat was under the bed. The volunteer laughed it off and was so glad she found her cat. Thank you, Mobile Meals!
I volunteered for Mobile Meals for two years during the pandemic. This organization held things together without an interruption of meal delivery. I moved in 2023 and now volunteer for Meals on Wheels in South Florida. They are both very special organizations.
Mobile Meals is a lifeline our family relies on. They deliver to our father and recently provided pet food to help him feed his animals. Thank you for all you do, and to all the volunteers!

As one of the newest board members for Mobile Meals of Toledo, I remain impressed with the quality of the service and food that the organization provides to clients across the communities that we serve. The recent change in leadership has offered a solid foundation for the organization to build and grow to do bigger and better things for all who benefit.
I volunteered about two years ago, and if it weren't for my ankle surgery, I would still be delivering meals. It was a great and rewarding experience.
I attended your fundraiser last year and met many nice people from your organization. You guys do a great job. We enjoyed the evening and learned a lot about your organization. Thank you.
My mother enjoyed Mobile Meals' services for over four years. Our family thanks you for all you did to keep her safe.

Volunteering for Mobile Meals has been a great experience. We are moving to Florida in May and will miss the friends we have made and the clients on our delivery route. Great organization!!
Over the past six months, Mobile Meals has been there to help my family. The food is good, and the people are great. Thanks for all you do. Donation is in the mail! Patti
My father has meals delivered to him two times a week by wonderful volunteers. I am so thankful for this service! Mary M, Sylvania Ohio
Dale has been a Mobile Meals volunteer for 13+ years & I began to work with him when I retired seven years ago. We feel very good about helping people who can't get out to the grocery store and have other problems preparing their own meals. We also feel good that when, occasionally, one of our clients has a crisis, we can contact the Mobile Meals office immediately, and they can help immediately by contacting the client's family. It also feels good to have some conversation with these good folks, as they probably don't have much of that in their lives now, either. All in all, it's a blessing to the clients and the volunteers.
My husband received MM after his second hip surgery. I still work, so having something he could prepare while I was at work was a blessing. Thanks to all the wonderful volunteers!
I am 71 and mostly homebound, no car can't drive anyway. Not able to go shopping and Amazon options are limited. Mobile Meals has been a tremendous blessing and fills a great void with delicious meals every week. I thank God for connecting me with Mobile Meals and the wonderful, caring staff and volunteers that work there and show up regardless of the weather. I highly recommend Mobile Meals to anyone that needs help.
Was a delivery volunteer for years pre- Covid. My delivery day was eliminated, so now I sub when needed. They are very organized and well run. Wonderful feeling to meet the recipients of meals and see how grateful they are for the deliveries. Easy way to help others.
Mobile Meals is a great organization with a friendly and helpful staff. I got the service for my mother who lives alone on the east side of Toledo. She loves her volunteers who are very kind and sweet to my mom. They always ask if she needs anything and how she is doing. My mom enjoys the meals and appreciated the birthday cake they brought her for her 83 birthday. I highly recommend this service.
We had this organization come and speak to our admin staff. We were blown away at the amazing service provides! We cannot wait to team up on helping our area seniors together!
Mobile Meals helped my mom after surgery and now helps my dad. The volunteers are what makes Mobile Meals especially remarkable. Thank you for your service on behalf of my sister and I.
Mobile Meals of Toledo is a great asset to our community. Everyone I know at this organization has "serving our clients" in the best way possible as their goal. The delivery volunteers not only bring meals, but they know the clients on their routes and look out for anything that might need further attention. The office staff are friendly and they also get to know the clients and listen to their needs. Truly a great organization!
Mobile Meals is a great nonprofit that helps so many. I know their fundraising was crippled by COVID but they kept going. The employees really care, the kitchen works tirelessly, and the volunteers are dedicated.
There is no finer organization in Toledo. We have volunteered for Mobile Meals (on and off) for over 7 years. The best part is getting to know the clients. My wife and I get to know many of the clients on our delivery routes. We look forward to seeing how everyone is doing and love swapping stories. They have become friends and they are always happy to see us when we make our deliveries. Five stars!!
Durng my decade volunteering with Mobile Meals of Toledo, I have been so impressed by the excellent organization and focus of this busy charity. Creativity shows in every aspect, from varied and appealing menus to good-humored interactioins with staff and wonderful fundraising projects.
Mobile Meals manages its big corps of volunteers very capably, which shows in the longevity of volunteer commitment and their willingness to do just one more thing to achieve a goal.
I have done volunteer work for many non-profits over the last 30 years, and I've never been involved with a better-staffed and organized operatioin.
They have served both my parents at some point and they both loved the people and the food. I will always be grateful. Thank you for your continued work.
I have been volunteering for Mobile Meals for 18 years. I deliver the meals to the clients. The clients are always very appreciative when receiving the meals. It brings a smile to their faces. In addition to getting delicious meals that meet each individual's dietary requirements delivered right to their door, it is a check on their well-being. Sometimes the volunteer delivering meals is the only person a client will see and interact with during the day. This brief bit of social interaction can do wonders for a person's psyche and sense of belonging.
I have been a volunteer for Mobile Meals for over 24 years. The organization does an excellent job providing meals, allowing seniors and others who struggle, to stay in their homes and receive nutritious meals. I have enjoyed getting to know so many individuals throughout the years who rely on this very important organization. I am fortunate to be able to serve my community in this manner.
I have recently begun volunteering for Mobile Meals and thus far the training and information that I have received has been exemplary. The care and thoughtfulness that goes into the service that they deliver is fantastic. For some of the individuals that they serve, the Mobile Meal organization may be their primary contact for the week.
Great job Mobile Meals!
