We are thrilled to share Berks Encore has adopted a new brand with the same heartfelt mission! Berks Encore’s meals on wheels program will now be known as Meals on Wheels Berks County! This change reflects our deep commitment to serving older adults and our homebound neighbors in Berks County with nourishing meals and heartfelt connections.
While the brand for our program is evolving, the care, compassion, and dedication you’ve come to know and trust will remain the same. For decades, we’ve been delivering more than just meals. We deliver comfort, kindness, and independence to those who need it most. Under the auspices of Berks Encore, Meals on Wheels Berks County is proud to stand with a national movement while staying rooted in the unique needs of our local community.
Together we’ll continue to make a difference – one meal, one smile, and one visit at a time.
