March for Meals
March 19, 2008 at Noon
Caddo Parish Courthouse on Texas Street
Downtown Shreveport

 


Join us as we raise funds and awareness
for CCOA's Meals on Wheels program.
 

We’re proud that community members including Sheriff Steve Prator, the Shreveport Police Department, local high school marching bands, church groups, civic organizations, service clubs, students, scouts, sororities and fraternities, business partners and individuals have chosen to show their support this year with both their participation and contributions.

CCOA needs the help of our community to meet their fundraising goal of $115,000.  We also hope to expand our volunteer delivery network in order to continue existing Meals on Wheels service levels and eliminate the waiting list.

Currently, 50 Caddo senior citizens are on the Meals on Wheels waiting list.  That means 50 seniors in our community are uncertain that they will eat a nutritious meal today.  Fifty seniors may go without any human contact today, without receiving even a simple smile.

Every cent raised during this campaign goes toward program costs for this critical service provided by the Caddo Council on Aging.  Please be a part of this effort to ensure that no senior goes hungry. If you would like to make a donation, find a way to have your group participate or have any other questions, please contact us today!
