19 News Press Release on October 5, 2007:

Meals on Wheels is coming to Fluvanna County.  In the past, elderly, disabled and low-income residents of Fluvanna County would have to rely on service from surrounding counties for a hot meal.  Starting this October all of that will change.  This new chapter will serve the entire county with the help of a local church and the University of Virginia catering services.  “A daily visit from Meals on Wheels volunteers helps ensure a connection with the community and if there’s something wrong or something that can be done, it can be communicated” said Don Morton, one of the co-founders of the Fluvanna Chapter.  Before meals can hit the road, the chapter is looking for a few volunteers.
