The month of March is the Milwaukie Center’s annual “March for Meals” fundraising campaign for the Meals on Wheels program. Meals on Wheels, a program where volunteers deliver meals to older adults and people with disabilities, provides more than 60,000 meals annually. Join them in this month-long campaign to ensure that no senior goes hungry. Your donations make a profound difference.

The March for Meals program was recently awarded a $10,000 “Good Seeds Grant” from Dave’s Killer Bread. Their generosity will greatly impact the success of Meals on Wheels as well as other essential programs at the Milwaukie Center. In addition, Bob’s Red Mill is matching all donations up to $7,500 they receive at the store in the month of March. New Seasons Market in Happy Valley and Clackamas Federal Credit Union’s McLoughlin branch are also accepting donations.

Here’s what you can do to support Meals on Wheels:

  • Make a donation anytime in the month of March when you checkout at Bob’s Red Mill store, 5000 S.E. International Way, Milwaukie.  Bob’s will match donations up to $7,500 received at the store during the month of March. You can also grab a “buy one, get one free” coupon at the Milwaukie Center to use at the store.
  • Pick up a Dave’s Killer Bread coupon at the Milwaukie Center for $1 off at the Healthy Bread Store, 5209 S.E. International Way, Milwaukie.
  •  Shop at New Seasons Market, 15861 S.E. Happy Valley Town Center Drive, Happy Valley, in March and make a donation at the check-out.
