For the 25th consecutive year, Lubbock Meals on Wheels is enlisting the help of Sara Lee, The United Family, KAMC, and KLBK, for the “Feed a Friend – It’s as Easy as Pie” fundraiser. Through this partnership, over the past 24 years we have raised over $875,000 to help people remain at home, well fed, and independent!
This year’s Easy As Pie is November 11-19. For each $5 donation to Lubbock Meals on Wheels, participants will receive a coupon for a free Sara Lee pie. Varieties include: homestyle apple, dutch apple, cherry, pumpkin, mince, sweet potato, and peach.
Our goal is to raise $75,000 with this fundraiser. Donations can be made at any Lubbock area United Supermarket or at the Lubbock Meals on Wheels’ office, 2304 34th.
