Meals on Wheels is my one hot meal of the day. I'm no longer strong enough to stand up and make my own meals. In addition, the volunteers make certain that they have a contact with me each day. Before I got on the MOW Program, I became stuck in a bathtub for 6 days and might have died there if a friend had not realized that I was not responding to calls. With MOW deliveries, I know that I will see a friendly face 5 days a week and be sure basic nutritional needs are met. Believe me, I am grateful for the volunteers. They go out in all types of horrible weather and still manage to bring a special gift of good cheer to each day.
Looking after others should be everyone's human right. Where I live, the authority looks after me, I call if I need more help. I'm 72 years old they make sure that I am comfortable. At the end of our journey till we die we need help. Shall we be not thrown out because we are elder? Did the 1% of wealthy Americans knows they not taking a penny on their way to hell? You, everybody, deserve a better care.
And this is what Biden is protecting from the Republicans. Say what you want about Biden and I have some negative things to say about him myself but he is a good man who knows what he is doing and does his best for the country. As a man in his 80's who is still doing so much and has seen the biggest economic growth since president Johson and finally investing in infastructure, American manufacturing and many other achievements it makes me so sad he gets so much hate. All from people who can't be bothered to spend 5 minutes on google. I am really disappointed there hasn't been a mass protest at the whitehouse yet to demand Biden envoke the 14th so that it is protected. So many seem to have made up their minds that he is unfit that they don't even bother anymore.
Technically, it would be woke when it's a social injustice that people who aren't able to help themselves or make food are able to get the help and interactions they need. But in trying to make a change, it is not woke when Meals on Wheels has been around longer than any of Matt Rapez's gfs have been alive and is a necessary part of our society and many communities. So yes, it is being a good person but anyone who hates this should be found criminally insane. #ProveMeWrong
Our friend Ginny got to remain in her home after she broke her hip due to Meals on Wheels. The lovdly lady that visted her always took a momentb to ask her how she was doing and have a chat. Wonderful organization!
Both my parents volunteered and delivered meals when they retired. I hope to follow in their footsteps IF I am able to retire and IF this program is still around.

My grandmother was able to remain at home due to meals in wheels. It’s not only a meal program but an important way for an older person alone to be checked in on and to have someone to talk to. So many elderly people are totally alone. It’s very sad how families have been separated. You have to ask why. In an age when everyone under 50 wants their “privacy” and everyone over 50 sees what’s coming…
You need to endorse Marianne Williamson. I still love this, this is awesome. Give love and support to those who have served and given much to this nation!
God bless these people who volunteer their time and resources to help the elderly and God Bless Bernie Sanders for having a true heart for the people of this nation.
Thanks for helping. I am disabled and had free assistance getting to appointments through the local Senior Center, even though I am 46 YO. I live in Washington State and grew up in Hollywood. It's always nice to pass the reefer to a good friend.
I worked with young adults that had differing levels of mental disability. I had several that volunteered to deliver for Meals On Wheels for their goals that we worked on for participating in local society. They gained so much self esteem and so many of those we served come to look forward to them bringing their meals.
You are a touchstone of American values and lead the charge on these issues we are fighting as bravely as Mr. Roosevelt. It's empowering to know real progressives are not detered.
This is a great video! I am a proud delivery volunteer in a different state, also I provide live music with three other musicians, in their centers. My mother is a MOW recipient in another state. Our clients really appreciate us! If you’d like to volunteer, I can’t think of a better way.
This needs to be standardised and provided by government. Not just sparsley provided based on luck from peoples charity. The private sector is horrible at providing essential goods and services in the grand scheme of things.
Reminds me of how, about 6 years ago, Trump's proposed budget wanted to cut block grants that support Meals on Wheels and similar programs. It's just sickening how they give huge tax breaks for the rich and then use that to justify cutting spending. btw, I love the background music in this one, it's very folksy just like Bernie is!

Thank you Bernard… Mad respect and appreciation for all that you do and continue to do. Your guiding light burns so bright. You continue to inspire this boomer hippie chick. ❤️🙏🏼✌🏼
The social services, positive socialism, that GOP 🤡s call communism, and that all seniors in this country deserve…without these services so many elderly would become isolated, prevention, prevention, prevention…the only way to go is to vote 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
The GOP is always quick to point to the Soviet Union as proof that communism means oppression but one thing that should be asked is what was Russia like before communism? Truth is that Russia was an oppressive autocracy for over 400 years already and had feudalism until as recently as the late 19th century and corruption and exploitation is a core part of it's identity. So if anything Russia should be proof about the limitations of communism. Communism tried and failed to change the autocratic government of Russia and so shouldn't it make sense it also won't be able to change the democratic system of the United States?
China is the same way. If you read stories about the late Ming dynasty with their deep state of beaurocrats and secret police that was spying on everyone with large state abuses of power you can see the parallels with the modern CCP. On top of that Saudi-Arabia, modern Russia, Mexico, Yemen, Rwanda, Germany and the United States are all capitalist but I wouldn't call them similar in freedom or human rights or equally successful. I think we need to realize that the fearmongering about "communism" has always been a lie and we were stupid to buy it in the first place. The Soviet Union was oppressive because Russia has always been an oppressive state and communism was not strong enough to change that.
Hay Bernie. Can you discuss the problematic situation with the housing authority (HACA) in Hayward,CA. Just read the yelp reviews and you'll understand. I love you man. Word up ❤️
Exactly. And by the way, if you BECOME a volunteer, you can be stuck with someone as a boss who is never satisfied with what you do in the kitchen preparing the meals. Many of those in the kitchen are doing community service. Either because of a sentence or because they need to earn their food stamps somehow. Those trying to earn food stamps are often treated very poorly as volunteers in the kitchen!
Show the actual meals. I have yet to find anyone who wanted to be served here--it is family who want them to get a meal. Food waste is a huge environmental problem.
Necessary program. Keeps elders in their homes. Bless the volunteers 🙏💙

A marvelous organization, helping real people in need.
Keep fighting the good fight Bernie we need you.
My grandmother would get meals on wheels when she was with us. She was a saint and so are the people who work for this organization.
It’s the right thing to do for the seniors 🙏🏼🇺🇸🗽
Helping people should be the thing everyone does
I agree .
I only became a volunteer about 16 years ago, and I’ll never quit.
Thanks Bernie, America needs you as never before.
Meals on wheels helps a lot of people. I think their wonderful.
Shout out to MOW's Drivers EVERYWHERE!!!! You're some of the best this country has to offer!!!!🎉❤
The GOP would call this, being woke. I call this being a good person.
We need to stop calling then the GOP- there is nothing grand about them.
religious conservatives aren't christians. they worship Mammon.
And it's also what I would call a "Good CHRISTIAN", like Jimmy Carter! 🥰🥰🥰🇩🇪🇨🇭🇺🇲💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

An amazing program! Don't let these SUPER RICH owners make their puppets strip US of what little assistance we get...
Wow!
Great, I wish I could see the same thing done in other States also...
🙏 God bless those who do good the Needy 🙏
We do it here, in another state, and also in my moms state.
Thankyou ⚘️
Thank You! Yes, we do need him as president!
You are amazing Bernie !
Vote blue in 2024. Save are Senior's EARNED Medicare and Social Security benefits.
Meals on Wheels should be fully funded by the government and be available to every American who needs it
This is a great video!

This needs to be standardised and provided by government. Not just sparsley provided based on luck from peoples charity. The private sector is horrible at providing essential goods and services in the grand scheme of things.
The program is very efficient and effective managed by a private non profit organization. All we need are more donors, and more volunteers.

Why is it so hard in NV to get help with food? Seniors get hungry, too.
Both my grandparents and parents delivered and deliver meals on wheels and I probably will too when I retire. If I can EVER retire in this day in age!
Beautiful people.
Bernard Sanders for president in 2024! Maybe Nina Turner for VP too!!!

He does not want to challenge Biden...that is a total shame!

I love this!
Meals on Wheels is so vital here in Iowa.
imagine how many people you could feed with one tenth of (f)elon's billions...
He’s a hoarder and a fascist. Phooey on him.
A wonderful service ❤

Pssst - this video is not about Bernie Sanders.
A beautiful thing.
this is a great program, but voluteers, are just one way of saying we are not paying people correctly or enough. unpaid interships should be illegal
