In various regions across New Jersey, homebound seniors need more than just their meals delivered. That is the message being spread by two Meals on Wheels organizations based in the state, both of which are seeking donations of cleaning and toiletry supplies to deliver to elderly and invalid clients during the coronavirus pandemic. These Meals on Wheels programs serve homebound seniors living in Ocean County and Greater New Brunswick, respectively. While continuing to regularly deliver meals to them — including extra emergency supplies of shelf-stable foods in the event that the delivery rate becomes affected by COVID-19 — these organizations are striving to also supply their clients with hygienic products, which have become increasingly difficult to acquire due to hoarding in grocery stores.
