Harris County Judge Ed Emmett and Elliot Gershenson, president and CEO of Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston’s Meals on Wheels program, will deliver meals to needy senior citizens Wednesday morning to highlight the National March For Meals Awareness Campaign. The deliveries also will help draw attention to the National Feinstein Challenge, which donates $1 million to local meal-delivery programs based on donations they receive during March and April.

The meal deliveries come at a time in which the local program is expanding its services. An additional 600 seniors will be added to daily delivery schedules by June, significantly reducing the current six-month waiting list for clients.

Members of the media are invited to attend.
