Meals on Wheels Greater Lafayette

Serving Tippecanoe County since 2016

Meals on Wheels Greater Lafayette has no restrictions as to whom can participate in our home-delivered meal program. If you have challenges accessing nutritious, affordable food for any reason, our program can help.

Meal Breakdown

  • Our meals are prepared fresh daily by Franciscan Health.

  • All of our meals are low-sodium, with the majority being heart-healthy as well.

  • Meals include an entree, two sides, a fruit, and choice of drink between 2% milk, skim milk, juice, or a bottle of water.

  • We offer daily choices between two different entrees, and four different sides, for a total of 16 different meal combinations available daily. You choose the food you receive!

  • Dietary needs can be accommodated for diabetics, low-sodium diets, and many allergies. (Provided proper choices are made in our menu.)

  • Meals can be easily reheated in a microwave or oven.

  • Meals are good in the refrigerator for up to three days (unopened).

  • Meals are able to be frozen in the container they come in.

  • Our 4-week rotating menu is updated twice a year in order to keep repetitiveness to a minimum.

Pricing and Payment

  • Meals are currently priced at $5.50.

  • Invoices are mailed in arrears (at the end of each month of meals), so consumers are not expected to pay upon each delivery or in advance. (Deposits may apply in certain cases up front.)

  • Our program accepts nearly all forms of payment including food stamps, cash (in office only), check, online payment, and money orders.
