The 12th Annual March for Meals campaign has been held by New Opportunities.  Newtown State Representative Mitch Bolinsky served as a volunteer driver for Meals on Wheels as part of the program that gives area residents an opportunity to support their senior neighbors. 

Bolinsky called it a heart-warming experience seeing how volunteers go beyond providing for clients nutritional well being.  He says these volunteers play a critical role in the lives of their clients. 

Legislation is pending at the state capital on rate reimbursement to help local Meals on Wheels programs.
