Meals on Wheels Greenville currently distributes 2,000 meals per day to homebound neighbors across our county. When they move into their new facility off Augusta Road this week, that number will jump to 6,000. The first official delivery day from the new facility is Monday, Jan. 19 — aka Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service.
