Date of Incorporation (Month/Year): 08/1976 <br /> 2. Agency's Purpose/Mission (no more than a few sentences): <br /> CHCMOW: We nourish the bodies and spirits of the homebound with a balanced meal and <br /> the human connection they need to help them live independently. <br /> OCRA: In alliance with community partners, OCRA advocates for rural seniors supporting <br /> them to live independent and dignified lives—access to county services, safe homes, <br /> nutritious food, and friendly human contact. OCRA's main mission towards this goal is to <br /> provide weekly hot, nutritious meals to rural seniors in underserved areas of rural Orange <br /> County. <br /> (MOWOCNC) Meals on Wheels Orange County, Serving Chapel Hill, Carrboro and <br /> Rural Orange County: To enhance the well-being of older adults, homebound adults, <br /> adults with disabilities and those convalescing, by alleviating hunger and reducing <br /> isolation. <br /> 3. Please provide a brief description of your organization's past achievements in carrying out similar <br /> projects and evidence of successful record of meeting proposed budgets and timetables (no more than <br /> 100 words) <br /> Strong fiscal management and mission focus has enabled CHCMOW to meet the <br /> challenges of increasing numbers of recipients in need with decreasing capacity to pay. <br /> We consistently grow each year either in number of meals delivered, number of people <br /> served, or both. We are able to leverage community support and volunteer power to <br /> serve a higher number of recipients than our income alone would accommodate. <br /> Increased need and limited financial resources required CHCMOW to start a waitlist in <br /> January. As we strive to provide equal access to our service across the county, the <br /> waitlist will be dependent on funding. <br /> 4.
