So Much More Than A Meal . . .

A Message From Our Executive Director Ernie arrives to do his route with a smile, as

many of our volunteers do on a daily basis. Howev-

er, Ernie also arrives in a wheelchair. Ernie lives with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), a

genetic, connective-tissue disorder that makes his

joints too loose, especially his spine. EDS is a little

known, and therefore difficult to diagnose, condition

that may afflict 1 in 5000 people in the US. The extraordinary thing about Ernie is not the

fact that he delivers meals in a wheelchair, but that

he was once served by us at the onset of his condi-

tion, and when he was well enough decided that

delivering meals was something he could do to give

back. More often than not, we see the opposite;

those who were once volunteers eventually needing

our services. It is a very special opportunity when

we can help those who once helped us! Ernie calls his condition an “invisible” disability, a

characterization he shares with many of those we

serve. The homebound are often invisible, especially

those who live in isolation, 60% of those we serve.

Those with Ehlers-Danlos could suffer for years in

silence, and no one would know the difference. After living with the condition as far back

as 1st grade, Ernie was finally diagnosed in 2012. He

was lucky to put a name to his condition, as 90% of

those with EDS go undiagnosed because of the lim-

ited number of doctors who are educated about it,

and genetic testing is still under research. Ernie first

came to volunteer with us in 2013 after his

first two surgeries, but then stepped away for anoth-

er round of interventions. But he never forgot about

us, and returned with us earlier this spring as a driv-

er in his well equipped van and high tech wheelchair!

Ernie does not only volunteer with us, but keeps a

busy schedule. He is one of the co- founders

of the Central New Jersey Ehlers-Danlos Support

Group, for those and their families who suffer from

the condition that currently has about

125 members. He attends the yearly national confer-

ence of the Ehlers Danlos Society which presents the

latest research on the condition. And he is always

looking for ways to inform and connect anyone who

may need information and support.

As the driver on the route, Ernie always makes a

point to ask the runner about each participant they

bound, what he most looked forward to was the in-

teraction he had with our volunteers. So while the

timing on the route does not permit Ernie to go to

every door, he does feel he is making a difference in

the way that he can, and we are exceedingly grateful

to call him our volunteer! “This is something I can do,

and it takes a village” he says. These are the people and experiences that make

us “so much more than a meal”. We are blessed that

meals, can remind us of this every day. For more

meals over the past year!

MOWMC Partners with the Greenwood Farmers

Market to Get Seniors Fresh Produce

The Farmers Market Check program, administered through the Mercer County

Office on Aging, was developed to provide low-income seniors with checks they can

use to purchase fresh produce grown by New Jersey farmers. It offers them an in-

creased opportunity to include a nutritious choice to their eating habits, and helps the

older adult who may be struggling financially to get the most for their money . Because

our seniors are homebound, they have not been able to access the checks they are

entitled to receive, until now.

By partnering with the local Trenton Greenwood Farmers Market, not only did we

get them weekly bags of fresh fruits and veggies delivered by our volunteers this summer, but they are able to

extend $25 dollars worth of checks to $50 using “Green Bucks” though a grant the market received! The

response has been overwhelming, and the Trenton seniors loved receiving fresh fruit, veggies and even bread!

It is our hope to be able to extend this program to all the municipalities we serve in the future!

More than 10 million (1 in 6) seniors in

the U.S. face the threat of hunger and more

than 15 million (1 in 4) are living in isolation.

This past summer, Meals on Wheels Ameri-

ca, in partnership with the Ad Council,

launched its first-ever national campaign

with the goal to recruit 1 million volun-

teers this year alone, to serve the nation’s

most vulnerable citizens. With the senior

population projected to double by 2050,

MOWMC has joined the effort to help inspire a new army of

volunteers locally to meet the growing need. The fully integrated campaign, including TV, radio, print, and

digital public service announcements (PSAs), launched in major

markets across the U.S., Since its launch, we have already seen an

uptick in volunteer inquiries. The campaign, created pro bono by the ad agency Anomaly,

will invite America to “Do Lunch” by volunteering during the

critical lunch hour period to deliver meals and a smile to seniors.

The campaign will tell the poignant stories of just a few of the 2.4

million seniors the national Meals on Wheels network serves

each year, stories that celebrate their lives and show how inspir-

ing, wise and charming they really are. To further highlight their stories, renowned celebrity pho-

tographer Mark Seliger – who has photographed some of our

culture’s most famous faces from Kurt Cobain to President

Obama – turned his lens to Meals on Wheels seniors and created

a series of portraits for the campaign. Local agencies can then

customize them as we did below!

Memorials and Honor Donations

Sasa Olessi Montaño, Executive Director, and Tim Wolf, Di-

rector of Program Services, were fortunate this year to attend

the National Meals on Wheels America Conference, “Together

We Rise”, held in Nashville, Tennessee at the end of August.

MOWMC received a scholarship from Meals on Wheels America

in order to attend. The national conference brings together representatives from

over 500 associations from across the country for training and

information sharing explicitly targeted to meals on wheels opera-

tions. They brought back many great ideas!

Frank A. Bailey helped get Meals on Wheels in Mercer Coun-

ty rolling in 1973, when as co-founder, he set out in a VW bus and

delivered 4 meals in Trenton, NJ. We lost Frank earlier this year

at the age of 96! Frank was born in Trenton, and served in the South Pacific

during WWII. He was a retired teacher of the deaf at the Katzen-

bach school. He served as President of our Meals on Wheels for

many, many years. Before his passing, he was visited weekly by one of our long

time volunteers, Burt. Burt would see to it that he had everything

he needed, and brought him special seasonal treats. Current staff

had the honor of meeting him before he passed away, thanking

him for his commitment to the homebound, and for founding our

organization.

Thank you for the legacy Frank; you will never be forgotten!

MOWMC Loses One of Our Founders

MOWMC Honored by

the Karma Foundation

On September 20th, 2016, in honor of the Karma Founda-

tion’s 20th Anniversary, they chose 20 outstanding non-profits to

honor for the presentation of the “20 for 20” Awards. MOWMC

received a $10,000 donation as one of the 20, for the outstanding

work we do in feeding the homebound. We are humbled! Established in 1996, the Karma Foundation provides grants in

support of organizations engaged in activities and programs in the areas of Arts & Culture, Autism, Education & Literacy, Health &

Human Services and Development & Enrichment of Jewish Life.
