Champions Week 2025 Recap

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Community

 Meals on Wheels has always been more than just a program at Seniors' Community Services (SCS); it’s a lifeline that helps seniors and adults with physical disabilities stay independent, healthy, and nourished. But beyond the meals, it’s about connection, support, and the incredible strength of our community. That’s why we dedicated last week to Champions Week, a celebration of the amazing volunteers, staff, clients, and community partners who make Meals on Wheels possible.

What is Champions Week?

Champions Week was an opportunity to shine a spotlight on the importance of Meals on Wheels and the key role community partners play in delivering this vital service. We welcomed local organizations, including Community Living Kemptville, Mayor Nancy, and Roxanne from Kemptville Youth Centre, to participate in the program and show their support for Meals on Wheels. It was a week filled with meaningful moments, warm interactions, and a chance to see firsthand how much this program means to our clients and the community.

 

Celebrating Community Champions

Throughout the week, our community champions joined us in different ways.
On Tuesday, Community Living Kemptville joined us on the road, delivering meals to our clients and spreading positivity. Their energy and enthusiasm made a lasting impact, and we’re so grateful for their participation.
On Friday, we had the honor of having Mayor Nancy and Roxanne from Kemptville Youth Centre join us. Mayor Nancy helped prep meals in the kitchen, while Roxanne took to the streets to personally deliver meals to clients. Their involvement brought extra warmth and connection to the week, and we couldn’t have asked for better partners to help celebrate this service.

 

Meals on Wheels: More Than a Lifeline

While Meals on Wheels is crucial for seniors and adults with physical disabilities who may have difficulty cooking or accessing nutritious food, it’s also a fantastic option for other members of our community. Many busy retirees who don’t enjoy cooking or simply don’t have the time appreciate the convenience and nutritional value of a homemade meal delivered right to their door. Meals on Wheels isn’t just about serving those in need; it’s about offering healthy, homemade meals to anyone who could benefit from the service—helping people stay independent for longer, while also providing peace of mind to families.
 

The Heart of the Community

We couldn’t do this work without the incredible support of our clients, volunteers, staff, and community partners. Together, we’ve created something special that strengthens the fabric of Kemptville and North Grenville. Your participation in Champions Week reminded us all of the power of community—and how, when we come together, we make this community stronger and more united.

 

A Heartfelt Thank You

To everyone who participated in Champions Week, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. To our clients, volunteers, staff, and community partners: your support makes Meals on Wheels not just a service, but a symbol of the care and connection that defines our community.
 
Together, we are stronger. Together, we thrive.
Thank you again for your ongoing commitment to Meals on Wheels, and stay tuned for more exciting ways to get involved and make a difference in the future!
