State Legislature honors Meals On Wheels Atlanta
Friday, February 27th, 2026
Meals On Wheels Atlanta was recognized for 60 years of service and millions of meals distributed with a resolution received Feb. 25 during a Georgia Senate floor session.
“We are honored to receive state-level recognition for the crucial work that Meals On Wheels does for Atlanta’s seniors,” said Charlene Crusoe-Ingram, CEO of Meals On Wheels Atlanta. “Each meal served represents more than nutrition; it represents social interaction and well-being checks for those who might otherwise be isolated, improved health care outcomes and more connected communities.”
The resolution — sponsored by state Sen. RaShaun Kemp, whose district includes parts of Meals On Wheels Atlanta’s service area — noted the organization’s commitment to fighting food insecurity by delivering more than 500,000 meals each year to nearly 1,100 Atlanta seniors and homebound individuals living with limited mobility, chronic illness and disabilities.
“Meals On Wheels Atlanta represents what it looks like when service meets purpose. Their work uplifts seniors, strengthens families and reflects the shared responsibility that defines strong communities,” Kemp said. “I am proud that this transformative organization calls my district home and honored to have the Georgia State Senate stand with efforts that invest in people, preserve dignity and bring neighbors together in service to one another.”
