Serving Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Celebration, Poinciana, Harmony, Narcoossee, BVL See page A-3 Osceola Council on Aging earns top Meals on Wheels program award By Tiffanie Reynolds Staff Writer For the Osceola County Council on Aging, this is the time of year when all its hard work finally pays off. It is the recipient of two awards: Top Meals on Wheels Program by the Meals on Wheels Association of America and the 2014 Florence R. Goldman Senior Center Award. It is the second time that Osceola won the Goldman Award since 2000. The local council will receive $10,000 from the Meals on Wheels Association of America for being selected for its “March for Meals” campaign. “We just served so many people. I mean, we serve almost half of the county out of this one building. So, we couldn’t do it without volunteers. We just work really hard, so it’s nice for somebody to say thank you,” said Beverly Hougland, chief executive officer of Osceola Council on Aging. This money, along with the additional $10,000 the program was able to raise during its March for Meals campaign, will feed another 17 seniors on their Meals for Wheels waiting list for the next year. The money also helps to News-Gazette Photo/Marc Clery bring back the congregate meals program for Kitchen workers, Jason Lopes, left, and Roderick Rivers prepare meals for Meals on Wheels at the Osceola County seniors five days a week.
