Amazon Smile

Amazon Smile is the exact same product prices and shopping features as Amazon.com except Amazon Smile donates .5% of your purchase price eligible products to the charity of your choice. Of course, we hope you’ll choose MOWWM. In order to take advantage of this, you must shop from AmazonSmile.com not Amazon.com. Just head to: https://smile.amazon.com and help a senior every time you shop online!

Microwaves Needed

We are in need of additional microwaves for our seniors to have for heating their meals. We have requests for microwaves from our seniors since it is easier than using an oven. We accept used or new appliances to distribute to those that are in need.

Product Harvesting

We happily accept donations from companies that are close to expiration date, or if there is damaged food or hygiene items that can’t be sold in stores. Regular product donations are always welcome.

Plant a row of produce and dedicate the harvest to our Senior Meals Pantry, so clients may enjoy fresh produce. Local Farms are encouraged to clean their unused produce.
