Yolo County Seniors deserve to EAT! Eat, Age, Thrive 2026

Eat, Age, Thrive logo

The local senior population is growing rapidly as the Baby Boom generation ages, older adults' access to public food assistance programs is less reliable than in the past, the tragic health consequences of social isolation are gaining recognition, and MOW Yolo's resources to provide more meals and more friendly contact to more seniors are diminishing.

In 2026, MOW Yolo continues to strive to provide as many as 1,200 aging adults in Yolo County with the opportunity to predictably EAT:  Eat, Age, Thrive in their own homes and communities, safely and with dignity.  With government funding both reduced and uncertain, it's YOU — our community of compassionate donors and volunteers — who are the heroes making MOW Yolo's mission and Strategic Plan goals possible:

  • Fresh, local nutritious food
  • Vegetarian and medically-tailored meals options
  • Engaging congregate dining experiences
  • More rural meals access

Every senior deserves to EAT:  Eat, Age, Thrive in Yolo County in 2026, and thanks to your gifts of funds and time, they can!
