Funding

The Nutrition Program is partially funded with Older Americans Act (OAA) funding; therefore, we are not able to set a price for meals. However, the OAA believes in giving recipients the opportunity to share in the cost of their meal. No one is denied service if he or she is unable to contribute.

​

Other funding sources include:

• Donations from meal recipients

• U.S. Department of Agriculture for persons over age 60 (per meal reimbursement)

• United Way of Portage County​

• Gifts from area organizations, churches, and individuals

• Memorial Gifts and Bequests.
