On April 24, 2010, several hundred people gathered to help raise money for Meals on Wheels at the Fitz, Vogt & Associates, LTD 16th Annual Ballroom Gala.  Participants crowded the dance floor and danced to live music by Rico Barr and the Jumpn’ Jive Review.  They also enjoyed dinner, raffles, silent and live auctions and ballroom dance performances by Royal Palace Dance Studio, Arthur Murray Dance Studio, Paper Moon Dance Center and Krystal Ballroom Dance Studio.  The evening was skillfully emceed by Mike Morin of the WZID (95.7 radio) Morning Show.

Thank you to the businesses and individuals who, in this difficult economic time, helped us achieve our goal for this event.  Proceeds will help us in our struggle to provide a nutritious meal, a daily safety check and socialization to an average of 1,650 elderly and homebound clients throughout Hillsborough County.   For many of our homebound clients, the only person they see during the day is their Meals on Wheels driver. 

Since its founding St. Joseph Community Services (SJCS) has served more than 9.6 million meals to an elderly, disabled and often isolated population.  Fundraising dollars touch every meal we serve.  We served 419,908 meals last year, this is 37,300 more meals than the previous year and the need continues to grow. 

If you would like to help SJCS meet this ever increasing need by making a donation please click the “Donate Online” button above or send a donation to us at St. Joseph Community Services, PO Box 910, Merrimack, NH, 03054.  If you would like to make a difference in an elder’s life by volunteering please call 603/424-9967.

St. Joseph Community Services fosters independence and life enrichment for seniors and other qualified adults through nutrition, social engagement and community services.

The Nashua Bank would like to invite you to stop in and meet their outstanding team of banking professionals.  They will take the time to know and understand your banking needs and help you reach your financial goals.

This year the Gala, our biggest fundraiser of the year, will be on Saturday, April 24, 2010 at the Radisson Hotel in Manchester.  This premier event includes dancing to live music by Rico Barr and the Jumpn’ Jive Review, dinner, auctions, raffles, and a performance by professional ballroom dancers. 

The proceeds from this Gala help us in our struggle to deliver food, friendship and a daily safety check to our participants, who are often the most vulnerable and isolated members in our community.  For many, the only person they see during the day is their Meals on Wheels driver.  We deliver food – one of life’s basic needs. 

Sponsorships are available NOW at the Gold Level – $6,000, Named Level – $3,000, Silver Level – $1000 and the Benefactor Level – $600.  If you would like more information on any of these sponsorship levels, please contact Paula Telage at 603-424-9967 or ptelage@sjcsinc.org

On May 2, 2009, several hundred people gathered to help raise money for Meals on Wheels at the Fitz, Vogt & Associates, LTD 15th Annual Ballroom Gala.  Participants crowded the dance floor and Sambaed Safari Style to live music by Rico Barr and the Jumpn’ Jive Review.  They also enjoyed dinner, raffles, silent and live auctions and a ballroom dance performance.  The evening was skillfully emceed by Mike Morin of the WZID (95.7 radio) Morning Show.

Thank you to the businesses and individuals who, in this difficult economic time, helped us achieve our goal for this event.  Proceeds will help us in our struggle to provide a nutritious meal, a daily safety check and socialization to an average of 1,600 elderly and homebound clients throughout Hillsborough County.   For many of our homebound clients, the only person they see during the day is their Meals on Wheels driver. 

Since its founding St. Joseph Community Services has served more than 9.5 million meals to an elderly, disabled and often isolated population.  Over the past ten months, we have seen a surge in need unprecedented in our 31 year history.
