(MOWLB) (The Organization) was founded in March 1971 and is a California nonprofit corporation. Meals on Wheels of Long Beach delivers a combination of wholesome meals, friendly visits, and a wide variety of additional programs to help ensure that homebound seniors, veterans, the chronically ill and disabled can continue living independently, well nourished, safe and happy in their own homes for as long as possible. Services are provided to all qualified applicants at a discounted, partially subsidized fee. Low-income applicants receive fully subsidized meals and support services when qualified during an intake process. The low-income meal and support subsidy program is funded in part by the generosity of individual donors, business and corporate sponsors, and philanthropic foundations. Home Delivered Meals:Meals on Wheels of Long Beach delivers nutritious meals to our homebound neighbors who face challenges trying to cook or shop for themselves, and who do not always have friends or family nearby to help. Our meals are available to all Long Beach, Lakewood, Signal Hill and Leisure World Seal Beach residents, regardless of age. We deliver meals with care and compassion, Monday through Friday, except on major holidays. Each meal delivery includes a cold lunch, a hot dinner, dessert, and a carton of milk. In 2023, MOWLB delivered over 170,000 meals to over 800 unduplicated clients.Friendly Visits:Meals on Wheels of Long Beach volunteers deliver so much more than just meals- they bring a smile, friendly conversation, care and connection to individuals who may otherwise be isolated. Volunteers also conduct wellness checks during meals deliveries and report to program staff their observations and concerns. In 2023, MOWLB volunteers conducted over 87,000 wellness checks. Pets are Family Too: For many of our homebound clients, their cats and dogs are their closest companions. Our Pets are Family Too Program delivers food for our clients furry friends, helping to ensure that beloved pets remain at home, well-fed, and happy. Client Support Services Program and Referrals:The Client Support Services Program helps to ensure all our clients' basic needs are met, enabling them to stay safe, comfortable, and happy in their own homes for as long as possible. When a client's needs extend beyond our capabilities, we refer them to other local nonprofit organizations with whom we partner, and work to ensure they receive the assistance they need. We also secure donations of mobility equipment and care supplies, such as walkers, wheelchairs, and bedding. To help further care for our clients, Meals on Wheels of Long Beach can provide many personal hygiene items. Hygiene kits are available to all Meals on Wheels of Long Beach clients. Telephone Reassurance Program:Social isolation can be a significant issue for our homebound clients, putting them at greater risk of depression and serious illness. Our Telephone Reassurance Program provides friendly and supportive calls once or twice a week to clients who feel the need for more social interaction than friendly meal deliveries can provide. Each call reduces loneliness and brings new opportunities to build deeper connections, forge friendships, and enrich our clients lives. California State University, Long Beach Nursing Student Partnership:Meals on Wheels of Long Beach proudly partners with the Nursing program at California State University, Long Beach. Nursing students are assigned to clients who need extra care and attention. Students conduct health assessments and identify real-life challenges clients face, such as limited internet access, financial strain, difficulties in home management and upkeep, and transportation problems, which often go unnoticed in clinical settings. They work with staff and professors to develop solutions and obtain resources for clients to resolve such issues, helping to make their lives easier and less stressful. 1090985 true true false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true false false false false false false true true false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 15 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 20 20 false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false true false false CA X X Kathleen Rockmore 5623268780 317 Termino Avenue Long Beach CA 90814 X Bill Shields President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Daniella Ruiz Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mike Wylie Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Matthew Vinson Secretary 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Noreen Evans Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Nancy Lewis Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Phyllis Cooper Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Karen Harmon Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jamila Jabulani Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Frank McIlquham Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ariel Pe Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Severson Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Shannon Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Adrian Rivera end 0223 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Johnson end 0723 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Raymond Morquecho end 1123 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Julie Mendell end 1223 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Laura Dondero end 1223 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Judith Hess end 1223 Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Judy Hirsch Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 7370 885222 45300 892592 Meal delivery fees 624210 550674 550674 550674 28374 28374 0 0 0 0 24700 3321 21379 21379 0 0 0 1493019 550674 49753 0 403275 403275 0 0 0 0 410170 295322 45119 69729 0 21210 15271 2333 3606 35916 25859 3951 6106 0 0 52045 26023 13011 13011 0 26250 26250 6552 6552 14914 4519 690 9705 7653 7653 0 13157 12426 548 183 0 58005 55283 1131 1591 0 0 0 0 0 0 15825 12277 1394 2154 Food, packaging, and delivery 189025 189025 Other 48162 26966 3040 18156 Bad debt 11869 11869 Telecommunications 11826 8515 1301 2010 22724 16224 2133 4367 1348578 1090985 100725 156868 0 151823 333788 0 97711 105121 0 0 0 0 2451 2727 82223 67736 21174 14487 999295 1066273 0 0 0 0 1272454 1522396 80506 87927 5866 4513 4218 86372 96658 X 1129213 1285021 56869 140717 1186082 1425738 1272454 1522396 144441 95215 X false true X true false X 394046 619350 416358 622653 892593 2945000 500918 657715 598623 549288 572053 2878597 0 0 0 894964 1277065 1014981 1171941 1464646 5823597 3000 3000 2800 10086 3000 21886 81410 56785 58130 37898 45477 279700 84410 59785 60930 47984 48477 301586 5522011 60166 5569 17804 17287 27855 128681 0 60166 5569 17804 17287 27855 128681 0 0 955130 1282634 1032785 1189228 1492501 5952278 0.92770 0.91230 0.02160 0.02070 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 622034 9569 631603 711177 -89143 622034 657946 53231 711177 1.00000 false false false 82223 67736 14487 14487 Other 4218 4218 X 1492501 -518 -518 1493019 1493019 1342026 1342026 6552 6552 1348578 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization has applied the provisions of Financial Accounting Standard Boards (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.
