Meals on Wheels of Odessa is excited to announce a partnership with Phillips 66 Goldsmith for Veterans Day. Meals on Wheels of Odessa is hosting a Day of Service to honor those who served. Those who are enjoying a day off are encouraged to give back to those who have given so much for our country.
Phillips 66 team members will be adopting several routes to deliver meals. In addition to donating their time, the Phillips 66 Goldsmith team will be presenting Meals on Wheels of Odessa with a $25,000 check. The donation will be used to provide over 6,200 meals to older Odessans who are homebound.
“I am extremely excited to welcome the team from Phillips 66 Goldsmith to honor veterans in our community on the Meals on Wheels of Odessa Day of Service,” Craig Stoker, executive director of Meals on Wheels of Odessa, said in a news release. “Partnerships like the one with Phillips 66 are critical to the operation of Meals on Wheels of Odessa, and their donation will help provide over 6,200 meals to homebound seniors and disabled members of our community. Meals on Wheels of Odessa serves 84 Veterans through our home-delivered meals program, and we continue to see our numbers increase. I cannot thank Phillips 66 Goldsmith enough for their donation of time and treasure, and I know their team will reap the rewards of serving others.”
The Veterans Day Day of Service is open to the public, and anyone who can help deliver a route is invited to register to volunteer online at mowo.org, or call 432-333-6451. Volunteer shifts are available Monday–Friday starting at 10:30. Most routes take less than an hour.
