Area restaurants join Meals on Wheels program

Posted

Denny’s Restaurants located at 1177 Reservoir Ave. in Cranston and 44 Dowling Village Blvd. in North Smithfield are the newest additions to join the already successful restaurant program for seniors throughout the state. These two locations will begin accepting the vouchers on March 1, 2017.

For a suggested donation of $5, a senior obtains a voucher to take to the participating restaurant of their choice in exchange for a variety of meal options provided by that restaurant. The other participating restaurants include all Newport Creamery locations excluding Barrington, Middletown and Newport; IHOP Restaurants in both Warwick and Providence; Pizza J in Providence and Uncle Tony’s Pizza & Pasta in Cranston and Johnston.

Meals on Wheels of Rhode Island’s Restaurant Program is open to seniors, aged 60 and older, in the State of RI. The Congregate Nutrition Program began the initiative in 2007 and its popularity continues to grow with many seniors enjoying the delicious, quality restaurant meals while socializing with their friends and loved ones.

Meals on Wheels of RI is a non-profit organization funded in part by ACL/AOA and state funds through the RI Division of Elderly Affairs
