MEALS ON WHEELS

Typically, meals are delivered on specific days based on the neighborhood. Please contact us to see if we can meet your request.

Please contact us to let us know you will not be home.

Each meal contains an entrée, starch, vegetable, fruit, wheat bread, fortified margarine spread, and low-fat milk.

We offer textured meals–pureed, minced and chopped—for those who have difficulty chewing or swallowing. We do not currently provide specific diets such as vegetarian or renal. If you are in need of a medical diet, please talk to your doctor about if our meals are right for you.

Yes! Meals are especially helpful during a recovery period, like after you’re discharged from the hospital, or when a caregiver needs a break. If you only want a few days or a week’s worth of meals, contact us about purchasing and picking up meals.

For those who don’t eat certain meals—for example, if you don’t eat pork—we are able to make substitutions. Note this will result in less overall variety within your menu.

Seniors can participate in our meal delivery service by calling (808) 356-8519 or emailing mow@lanakilapacific.org.

Lanakila Meals on Wheels is Oahu's largest and only island-wide meal delivery service for seniors. Our meals are brought straight to your door, are USDA-compliant, and reflect the local flavors our kupuna know and love! Our program extends beyond meal delivery and includes opportunities for seniors to learn to use technology, access fresh produce, and engage in virtual gathering spaces.
