We have teamed up with Erie County to provide a nutritional meal weekdays at 12:00 noon for a nominal ($2.50) voluntary contribution. The meals are served at our main center on Ensminger Road and at the Mang Community Center on Wilber Avenue. Not only do they provide good nutrition, but they also give everyone an opportunity to meet new friends. To reserve your spot for the meal, stop in at 291 Ensminger or 135 Wilber. Ken-Ton Meals on Wheels If you, or someone you know, are homebound and without a personal care aid or family to prepare meals, call the Ken-Ton Meals on Wheels at 874-3595 for home meal delivery.
