Mobile Meals is program of Family & Community Services, Inc. and a Meals on Wheels affiliated organization operating in Northeast Ohio. Mobile Meals was founded in 1971. The idea of providing meals was first suggested by Mary Gordon at a picnic of the Summit County Medical Auxiliary (now known as the Summit County Medical Alliance). Mary’s physician husband had frequently mentioned that he would feel comfortable releasing stroke patients from the hospital if they could shop and prepare their own meals. The Auxiliary, meanwhile, was looking for a hands-on project with a purpose. Mary’s idea took on new life when soon afterward, the Auxiliary learned of a successful meal-delivery program in Toledo, Ohio. A 15-member Task Force went to work and Mobile Meals of Akron emerged — with $500 in seed money for route books, food containers and basic supplies that enabled delivery of 12 meals a day from base locations in two local hospitals. Today the agency is a not-for-profit service organization with approximately 52 staff members and 200 volunteers serving people of all ages and economic circumstances throughout Northeast Ohio. Mobile Meals staff and volunteers provide an average of 2,200 meals and supplements each day to people in their homes and at dining centers. Clients include people of all ages. The Summit County Medical Society continues its volunteer activities to raise funds for the agency. Please visit our website for more information at: www.mobilemealsinc.org
