A Knock at the Door Makes All the Difference
Think about the people who checked on you when life got hard. The neighbor who showed up with soup or the friend who called just to hear how your day went. You probably don’t remember what they said. You remember that they came.
For many aging adults in Weld County, those visits have grown rare. Family has moved away, old friends are gone, and winter turns the walk to the mailbox into a long trip. A whole day can pass without a single knock on the door.
You can be the reason that changes. Your gift sends a volunteer up the front walk with a hot meal from our kitchen. They come inside from the cold for a minute, ask about the grandkids, and notice if something seems off. For the neighbor who opens the door, it’s often the best conversation of the day.
This year, we’re asking our community to raise $20,000 by Colorado Gives Day on December 8 to keep those meals and check-ins coming through the coldest months. Every gift you make through Colorado Gives between now and December 8 unlocks extra funding for Meals on Wheels, so you’re giving more than the amount you enter.
For old times’ sake, and for moments yet to come.
What your gift sets in motion this winter
Every amount adds up to a warm meal and a friendly knock on someone’s door.
Here’s what yours can do.
