Wednesday Wellness CallsOn Wednesday, you will be collecting information from clients regarding their weekly delivery. It is so important for MOWD to know if clients can be home and to remind clients the importance of being home during their delivery! This directly supports our ability to order the correct amount of food while also ensuring as many of our current clients are being served the best way possible! This is also the last day our clients can cancel their meals.  Friday Wellness CallsThink of this as ‘FUN Friday!’. On Friday you will be connecting with clients and checking in on them.
