About Us

Established in 1972, Stillwater Mobile Meals is a non-profit organization that delivers hot, nutritious noontime meals to the elderly, homebound, and convalescing citizens of Stillwater. The meals are delivered by volunteers Monday through Friday. The goal of the Mobile Meals program is to help people maintain their independence and continue to live in their own homes as long as possible. By providing nourishing meals and friendly concern, we strive to improve the quality of life for those we serve.

Mobile meals is not a government agency and does not receive any federal or state funding. Mobile Meals is supported by the United Way and the Stillwater community. Mobile Meals charged $1.00 per meal when the program began in 1972. Meals have only increased to $4.00 today! If a client cannot afford the full cost of meals, arrangements are made to fit their budget. We do not want price to prohibit anyone from receiving Mobile Meals. We currently serve an average of 85 meals a day with a 14 route system and continue to grow year-over-year.
