FRIENDS OF MOW POWERS MOW YOLO!
Friends of Meals on Wheels is a volunteer-based non-profit contributing to Meals on Wheels Yolo County's fiscal viability by organizing and presenting annual fundraising events and serving as community ambassadors for our mission.
Net proceeds from all events are granted to Meals on Wheels Yolo County annually upon request, to provide targeted support and to fund extraordinary expenses. The annual events are described below.
Again in the 2024-2025 fiscal year, Friends of MOW literally is POWERING MOW Yolo, by offsetting budgeted utilities expenses. Critical to meal preparation, utility rates have skyrocketed over the past year, while MOW Yolo simultaneously has increased kitchen capacity and related utility usage, as well. THANK YOU, "Friends"!
EPICUREAN ESPRIT
A taste of Yolo County's finest wine and cuisine, this annual event typically is held on the third Thursday in May at a picturesque outdoor Yolo County venue. This year, however, the event will be held on a Wednesday -- May 14, 2025 -- to celebrate at a special location: Park Winters. Learn more about, sponsor, and purchase tickets at this link.
