Meals on Wheels Foundation of Northern Illinois
The Community Nutrition Network & Senior Services Association(CNNSSA) became a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization in 2000. To remain in full operation and be able to expand services to meet the growing need, the Meals on Wheels Foundation of Northern Illinois (MOWFNI) was created in 2001 as the fundraising, community outreach, and public awareness arm of CNNSSA.
MOWFNI seeks support for the funding of Community Cafes and home delivery of meals to eligible older adults and those with disabilities in Suburban Cook, Grundy, Will and Kendall counties in Illinois. Throughout these four counties, where service is provided, there are over 40 Community Cafes and nine sites that serve as meal distribution hubs for the Home-Delivery program. CNNSSA has expanded the home-delivery program so some older adults will receive meals seven days a week as needed. Every older adult who receives home-delivered meals also receives at least three shelf stable meals at the beginning of each winter in case inclement weather.
Community Nutrition Network & Senior Services Association is now one of the largest senior meal providers in the nation.
