Cabarrus Meals on Wheels

Our club delivers a regular Friday afternoon route for Cabarrus Meals on Wheels. Helping deliver a meal to a senior so they can continue to live at home is a vital service and is also a great opportunity for our Rotarians to serve the community together. Contact Rotarian Dick McMillan if you are interested in participating.
