We continue our series featuring local nonprofits in San Pedro. This week's guests co-captain the small-but-mighty nonprofit, San Pedro Meals On Wheels. President/chef, Susan McKenna, and chef/office manager Mike Caccavalla, along with dozens of local volunteers prepare and deliver meals with a side of humanity to numerous home-bound neighbors. Get ready for some laughs and inspiration as Mike and Susan share about their backstories and the history behind the organization, its evolution and how it has grown. The continued success to stave off hidden hunger is due in large part to the volunteering spirit of San Pedrans and neighboring volunteers. There are a number of ways to support Meals on Wheels San Pedro from Mondays “Chop-and-Chat” to delivery drivers to neighborly check-ups with more information listed and linked below.
