“Since this COVID-19 has obviously hit the Coast, it is vital that we are continuing our effort to get out and reach our seniors,” Kendrick said. “Our Seniors were told they need to stay at home. They’re not supposed to be out."
“Typically they rely on us for transportation and meals, so we’re trying to make sure that they’re not left behind.”
The District is currently providing meals to almost 1,700 seniors in 15 counties. They have more than doubled the number of meals they deliver in Jackson County since the outbreak began.
