Senior Action, a non-profit organization devoted to keeping seniors active, healthy, and engaged in meaningful activities, is now handing out meals to anyone over the age of 60 who would like them.
You do not have to be a Senior Action member to participate, and meal distribution is in no way tied to financial need or any other criteria.
The organization says this is simply a community effort to help people over the age of 60 avoid going to grocery stores and other public places to get food amid Coronavirus concerns.
Here’s how the meal distribution works:
Meals are handed out - drive-thru style - at seven locations across Greenville County
Senior Action HQ (50 Directors Drive - just off Orchard Park)
Simpsonville Activity Center
Slater-Marietta
Berea Community Center
Long Branch Baptist Church
Pleasant Valley Connection
Greer Needmore Center
You must call ahead to reserve your meals (864-467-3660)
When you call to reserve your meals, a Senior Action staff member will help you find the distribution location closest to you
Pick-up times: Monday, Wednesday and Friday between 11:30am-12pm for all locations except Simpsonville Activity Center. Pick-up times for Simpsonville are 12-12:30 p.m.
You’ll get two meals on Monday and Wednesday, and three meals on Friday (one meal for every day of the week)
