MEALS ON WHEELS 65TH ANNIVERSARY
(Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the
65th anniversary of the Meals on Wheels program led by Senior Citizens,
Inc. in Savannah, Georgia.
For 65 years, this program has provided thousands of nutritious meals
and vital daily contact with elderly, homebound adults.
This year, to celebrate the milestone, Senior Citizens, Inc.
partnered with local chefs, including James Beard Award winner Chef
Bailey. Chef Bailey assisted in crafting special gourmet meals as a
tribute to the people they serve.
Meals on Wheels delivers care, compassion, and peace of mind to
families in Savannah and beyond. The partnership reflects the power of
community engagement and shows what is possible when local
organizations and volunteers work together to lift others.
I thank Senior Citizens, Inc., Meals on Wheels, and Chef Bailey for
their initiative and congratulate them on the anniversary of this most
important service.
