Eastern Area Agency on Aging is thrilled to host our second annual Fall breakfast fundraiser, called Harvest for Help.
This year, we ask for our community's support as we raise money for programs such as Meals on Wheels. The need for Meals on Wheels assistance greatly exceeds federal funding, and has resulted in a significant waitlist.
The proceeds from the Harvest for Help Fundraiser will supplement federal funding to support EAAA’s programs.
This breakfast will focus on nutrition and its importance for all of our community members throughout the life spectrum. Food is more than just a meal; it can affect our entire wellness picture. The event will feature a moderated panel with industry leaders from the area to talk about the role nutrition plays in our lives and our work. Check out who we have speaking at our moderated panel:
