can<br />

help<br />

<br />

Please bring recyclable aluminum cans <strong>to</strong> <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong>. Regular trips are<br />

made <strong>to</strong> recycle these materials, and the money received provides funds for programs. In<br />

the future, <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong> hopes <strong>to</strong> have a recycle trailer on site, but until then,<br />

you can still help the environment and <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong> by bringing your aluminum<br />

cans <strong>to</strong> 2304-34th Street during office hours, Monday – Friday, 8a.m.-4:30p.m.<br />

<strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong> July 2008<br />

can<br />

help!


a note from the executive direc<strong>to</strong>r<br />

A late night phone call from our alarm company informed me there was trouble with the main freezer<br />

in the building. Much <strong>to</strong> my chagrin, the problem was that the copper tubing going <strong>to</strong> the freezer had<br />

been stripped off the outside of the building. We had lost the Freon coolant, and temperatures had<br />

risen. Freon is extremely expensive at $25 a pound, and we lost $1500 worth.<br />

The report <strong>to</strong> the police and insurance company alerted me <strong>to</strong> many other businesses, schools, and<br />

new residential homes, having the same problem. I was incensed because LMOW is a charity providing<br />

a basic human need, and this damage was senseless and intentional.<br />

The people who live in this community responded <strong>to</strong> our plight. <strong>On</strong> behalf of the board of direc<strong>to</strong>rs,<br />

the staff, and myself, we thank everyone who sent a gift <strong>to</strong> help with the repairs and security measures<br />

<strong>to</strong> prevent further vandalism.<br />

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world; indeed, it’s the<br />

Executive Direc<strong>to</strong>r only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead<br />

Big Sale = Big Bucks<br />

Delta Theta Chi held their Annual<br />

Garage Sale on April 25th and raised an<br />

impressive $8,400 for <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on<br />

<strong>Wheels</strong>! This amazing sorority has held<br />

this annual sale for over thirty consecutive<br />

years. Since 1994 they have donated<br />

more than $65,000 <strong>to</strong> our agency. They<br />

would like <strong>to</strong> thank everyone who donated<br />

items <strong>to</strong> the sale and, of course,<br />

<strong>to</strong> all of the shoppers who made the<br />

event a success. Our sincere thanks goes<br />

<strong>to</strong> Delta Theta Chi for all of their hard<br />

work on this huge garage sale and for<br />

their dedication <strong>to</strong> <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on<br />

<strong>Wheels</strong> over the years.<br />

supporting your community<br />

<strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong> July 2008


Volunteers deliver dry dog food and cat food every other week <strong>to</strong><br />

the pets of meal recipients who are unable <strong>to</strong> provide pet food<br />

for their furry friends. Currently, about 80 dogs and cats are on<br />

the Pet Food Program, so donations of food are always welcome!<br />

Collecting pet food is also a great project for a service group,<br />

organization, or business office. Anyone interested in donating<br />

food can either bring it by <strong>Lubbock</strong> <strong>Meals</strong> on <strong>Wheels</strong> during normal<br />

business hours (8 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. Monday<br />

– Friday) or call (806) 792-7971 for more<br />

Volunteer <strong>to</strong> Feed the Need!<br />

Looking for a great activity for you and your children or grandchildren<br />

this summer If you are able <strong>to</strong> donate an hour of your time, you can make<br />

an incredible difference in the life of someone who is homebound, elderly,<br />

or disabled. Summer is here and that means many new volunteer drivers are<br />

needed. Many student volunteers are not available in the summer, and many<br />

other volunteers take well-deserved vacations during this time so substitute<br />

volunteers are needed <strong>to</strong> fill in. A one-hour orientation is required. All of the<br />

routes are within the city limits, have between 6 and 12 s<strong>to</strong>ps, and average<br />

about 12 miles. It only takes about one hour <strong>to</strong> deliver a route, and you can<br />

go as often as you choose. If you are unable <strong>to</strong> become a volunteer, you can<br />

still help by passing along this information <strong>to</strong> your friends, family, civic club,<br />

Sunday school class, mission group, or other organization <strong>to</strong> help us recruit<br />

new volunteers!<br />

A special opportunity available for businesses is our Corporate Volunteer<br />

Program. Local businesses are encouraged <strong>to</strong> participate by allowing employees<br />

<strong>to</strong> deliver meals during their lunch hour. This allows employers <strong>to</strong><br />

be civic minded without excessive loss of staff time. For convenience, the<br />

required orientation may be held at your place of business. Approximately<br />

30 businesses are currently involved in this program.<br />

If you or your group or business is interested in signing up for the best<br />

volunteer job in <strong>to</strong>wn, please call Barbara at 792-7971 and start making a<br />

difference <strong>to</strong>day.<br />
