Meals On Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charitable organization that started in 1973 as a collaboration between 11 faith-based organizations in downtown Fort Worth to bring food to the elderly in the central city area. Over the years, we have grown and now serve all of Tarrant County, providing approximately 1 million meals each year to some of Tarrant County’s most frail citizens.
