What our seniors say about our meals:

 Olivia is a woman with over 11 different illnesses.  She has so many allergies that she is restricted to a Vegan diet with no wheat products of any kind.  She also cannot get out of her house very often because of her many illnesses.  At times she cannot even go to the grocery store to buy food.  She says she is in such a physically weak condition that even basic food preparation is, at times, difficult for her. 

Southcare has catered to Olivia’s needs in a timely fashion.  Not only have Southcare found appropriate cleaning services to keep her house disease-free but being one of the only healthy organic Meals on Wheels organizations in existence, Southcare is able to deliver fresh, wholesome Vegan meals that meet her dietary requirements. 

Southcare made and delivered dairy-free, wheat-free muffins, soy yogurt, tofu-vegetable stir-fries and fresh fruits and vegetables to Olivia.  She has often expressed her gratitude when Southcare’s volunteers drop off her meals.
