Meals On Wheels recipients who are homebound seniors and their pets · Monthly deliveries
From fayss.org/meals-wheels ↗Since 2009, Fayette Senior Services has been collecting and delivering donations of pet food for Meals On Wheels recipient's animals on a monthly basis.
Many of our Meals On Wheels recipients find it challenging to provide food for their pets when they are not able to leave their homes. To many homebound seniors, having a pet is a source of companionship and comfort.
The AniMeals program is designed to give our MOW clients a little help with the cost and obtaining of pet food so that it isn't an added burden to maintain the important bond between pet owner and pet. Some of these homebound seniors give up their own meals so that their pets can eat as well.
Fayette Senior Services' AniMeals program has allowed many in our community to continue to care for their animals by providing them with much-needed pet food they wouldn't otherwise be able to afford or obtain. This program makes a difference not only in the quality of life for the animals, but also for the homebound seniors who love and care for them.

FSS is always accepting donations of pet food for this wonderful program. Both food and monetary donations can be made directly to Fayette Senior Services' at 4 Center Drive, Fayetteville or 203 McIntosh Trail, Peachtree City. Sponsorships are also available for those interested in supporting the program on a larger scale.
