Meals on Wheels Central Texas

Purpose and community role

Meals on Wheels Central Texas describes meal delivery and other support for older adults at home. Its volunteer network makes the connection between preparation, pickup, and delivery visible in this directory.

The Central Kitchen record shows a physical handoff point in that process. Reading the organization and location profiles together helps distinguish service intake, volunteer coordination, and meal pickup. Each has a different next step even though all connect to the same partner.

Finding current services

Use the official website to ask about services and eligibility for yourself or someone you support. Living near the kitchen is not an eligibility determination, and this directory cannot enroll a recipient.

A prospective recipient or someone assisting them should begin with the provider's current information and ask any questions directly. The kitchen map helps orient a location; it does not establish an appointment, confirm enrollment, or identify which households can receive a service.

Participate

Delivery and other volunteer opportunities are described on the official recruitment page. Complete the organization's onboarding and confirm the role, pickup point, and schedule before beginning.

The reviewed onboarding information includes an application, background check, and training. Consult the current page for those requirements and discuss available opportunities with the organization. Only after receiving an assignment should a volunteer rely on its pickup and delivery instructions.

Listed local presence

The East 5th Street Central Kitchen is the single pickup location in this initial collection. Its 78702 profile marks that site's postal address, not the extent of the organization's delivery routes.

Use the related kitchen card for the listed address and pickup context, and the community card to browse that postal profile. Counts describe only the connected records in ATX Food Relay. They do not measure recipients, volunteer activity, or the organization's full reach.
