Some of our volunteers have gone out of their way to care for clients. One volunteer returned to a client’s home to make sure they had received their meal. Another stayed with a client who had fallen, while waiting for paramedics. These moments can mean a great deal.
Care BC warmly congratulates all British Columbia’s newly elected representatives. We look forward to continue partnering with you to strengthen care, foster connected communities, and ensure that all seniors and caregivers can live with the dignity and the supports they need.
For someone living alone, the volunteer at the door may be one of the few people they see all day. It might be a quick hello. Small moments, but they matter. And for family members who can’t be there every day, knowing someone is checking in brings real peace of mind.
Congratulations to the newly elected representatives of the Greater Vancouver Area. We look forward to partnering with you to create the cities that are welcoming, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of residents at every stage of life.
Meet Makenzie Myles, Volunteer Program Manager. Her work with clients and volunteers has helped her understand why Meals On Wheels is vital for seniors who may not have a strong support system. For them, everyday things like getting groceries or preparing meals can be difficult.
Thank you to our volunteers, staff, caregivers, families, clients, and partners for building a caring community. Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and meaningful Thanksgiving. #CareBC #MealsOnWheels #Caregivers

At Care BC, we believe every older adult deserves to age with dignity, purpose, choice, and connection. Older adults are not passive recipients of care. They continue to contribute to their families, neighbourhoods, and communities in meaningful ways. #carebc #agingwithdignity
