Abilene's Meals on Wheels Plus program feeds well over 1400 people every day. Those being fed live in Abilene and the surrounding towns like Ballinger, Eula, Hamby, Hamlin, Hawley, Hodges, Ovalo, Potosi, Rowena, and Winters. They cannot feed themselves and are either elderly or have disabilities or both.

By participating in or donating to the Meals on Wheels Plus Annual Sporting Clays Classic, you will be helping to feed those in our community who can't feed themselves. The Clay Shoot is Saturday, August 19th, 2023.
