Peace Meal Continues Expansion in Post-COVID Environment

A central Illinois non-profit aimed at providing nutritious meals for seniors is continuing to add to its programming coming out of COVID.

 

Shelly Tolly with OSF Peace Meal explains at the DeWitt County Friendship Center in Clinton, congregate meals are back along with home-delivered meals for seniors.

 

 

According to Tolly, Farmer City's program continues as normal. In Weldon, the Weldon Village Hall is hoping to host a congregate site Monday through Friday. The hangup is they need a site supervisor to make that happen.

 

 

Tolly is excited about all the developments in Piatt County. She explains the entire County is going to have hot meals delivered. Right now, things are limited to a select few communities.

 

 

Peace Meal recipients received frozen meals at the start of the winter when the weather turns bad and drivers cannot get out to deliver. 

 

If you or someone close to you would like to receive a meal or learn more about the program, call 309-665-5900.
