7th Annual Meals on Wheels 5K Turkey Trot
Whether you choose to walk, waddle, or run, turkey trot us for everyone! There is no easier way to give back to the community and enjoy a fun morning with family, friends, colleagues, and neighbours. This event is for everyone, from the serious runner to a family looking to be more active together or someone getting a jumpstart on those fitness goals.
Meals on Wheels continues to serve the community by delivering hot lunchtime meals to over 300 seniors across Grand Cayman each weekday. Jennifer West, Meals on Wheels General Manager states “As the global crisis rises, so does the demand for our services, we have more and more seniors being referred each day and funds are needed to ensure that we are able to sustain our services to our vulnerable seniors.” The goal is to raise $44,000, which will fund seniors’ meals for one month.
