Our Mission

Here at Edmonton Meals on Wheels, we do far more than deliver meals – we create connections, foster community, and have a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve. As a local registered charity, our journey began on April 21, 1969, with a simple yet powerful mission: to provide home-delivered meals and food services to a diverse mix of people in Edmonton.

About Edmonton Meals on Wheels

Our story is one of continuous growth and evolution to better meet the changing needs and demographics of our beloved city. Since 1988, we’ve operated our own food production and distribution centre, hired professional kitchen staff, and maintained a commitment to quality customer service, excellent meals, and innovative community engagement. Beyond the delicious dishes, our success lies in our ability to think creatively, forge partnerships, host engaging events, and offer a variety of volunteer opportunities that make everyone feel welcome and involved.

Who we serve

At Edmonton Meals on Wheels, our service is open to anyone facing a barrier to preparing nutritious meals. Whether you’re a senior, house-bound individual, someone with special dietary needs, a busy professional, a family juggling responsibilities, a student navigating academics, a new parent seeking convenience, or anyone else needing help with healthy meal planning, we are here for you. Our diverse and inclusive approach ensures that our services cater to the unique needs of each individual, building a community that thrives on mutual care and support.
