Meal Delivery is still being offered to the seniors 2 days a week. Many local restaurants are very happy and finding it helpful for their business to offer these meals, as it is helping to keep them in business. We have delivered over 35,000 meals to the seniors in Mountainside. If interested in receiving meals, please reach out to Kim Moriak at 908-232-4406.
