A program in DeWitt County that aims to provide senior citizens with meals is in need of volunteer help.

The Peace Meal program delivers meals to shut in senior citizens across the community on a daily basis and Sissy Leggett, Executive Director of the DeWitt County Friendship Center, indicates they need drivers to deliver those meals to seniors.

Leggett says the seniors you'd be helping out, often times have more face time with their delivery drivers than their family and friends and in other cases, it could be the only person they see during the course of the day.

Peace Meal is a daily meal provided at the DeWitt County Friendship Center on Main Street in Clinton. They also provide meals to seniors at home and Leggett says if you can help at all, you can contact the Friendship Center at 217-935-9411.
