In 2023, the St. Martin Council on Aging hosted a Meals on Wheels Golf Tournament and it was great to see the golfers come out and support our seniors. We're excited for tennis to be a part of it this great tournament.
SMCOA Chairman Allan Clark shared the goal is to raise $75,000 for Meals on Wheels, a program made up of Meals On Wheels staff and volunteers who deliver hot meals to over 500 senior citizens throughout Lafayette Parish and St. Martin Parish. Other services provided to seniors include transportation, recreational activities, case management, and outreach, just to name a few. Through this fundraiser, we are confident that our goal of $75,000 to go toward providing these meals to seniors can be reached, thanks to the outpouring support from the golf and tennis community, sponsors, and volunteers.
