- Every weekday just before noon, a 91-year-old Sussex man stands at his door awaiting a special delivery. Some days, it’s Melissa Schieble, who arrives with a smile and a freshly made meal in hand.
“I just love seeing the people. The smile on their face, the appreciation, the conversation,” Schieble, a mother of two, smiled.
Monday through Friday, volunteers like Schieble pack and deliver meals to home-bound seniors 60 years and older across Waukesha County. According to surveys from the Waukesha County ADRC, 16% of their consumers said the driver was the only person they saw in the week.
Currently, the program has over 200 volunteers year-round.
