3 . Want to help us serve more of our elderly neighbors? Want to deliver meals and a smile?
Meals on Wheels provides meals for the elderly and the disabled adults in Richland County, South Carolina. Meals are delivered at lunch time five days a week by volunteers.
But Meals on Wheels delivers more than just a meal. The daily visit from a volunteer also provides a warm smile and a safety check that helps keep seniors healthy, safe and living independently in their own homes.
Who receives Meals on Wheels?
Meals on Wheels recipients (接受者) are the elderly and disabled adults in our community who cannot maintain an enough, healthy diet, either because of transport or money difficulties. Nearly three-fourths of them are at or below the national poverty level (贫困线).
What is the cost of Meals on Wheels?
No one is refused a meal based on income. Some individuals may receive meals at no cost, while others are asked to pay according to their incomes.
What’s on the menu?
Our menus are carefully planned to meet one-third of the daily nutritional (营养) needs of senior people. All meals are served with fat-free milk and whole grain bread.
How can I help?
Through the support of our funding partners, staff and volunteers, we were able to serve 169,381 hot and frozen meals to 1,015 recipients in 2018. The meals were delivered by volunteers driving nearly 55,000 miles. Although we have made great efforts, we still have a waiting list of people we can't serve because we don’t have enough workers. So please join us!

7 . I'm still very much figuring out what I want to do with my life, but I can honestly say now that I feel very proud of where I am right now. I've written about the teachers in high school and college I had that made a big impact on me, but I haven't mentioned the person that make the biggest difference.
Growing up, Mom was always there for me. People think of Asian mothers as scary and demanding, but my mother was nothing like that. During the summers, we had some math and Chinese lessons every day before we could go outside and play, which may sound dull, but somehow Mom made it fun. She took our education very seriously and spent countless hours copying math problems into notebooks with colored pens. She made hundreds of index(索引)cards, each with a Chinese character on it, which we would rearrange to make sentences. I still smile when I open up my math notebooks and see those colorful pages of math problems—if I got them all right, I'd get a smiling face and "100%!" or "Next Einstein!" on the top with sticker. If I didn't do so well, I'd get a Pretty Good!"
I was the only girl on the Math Counts team in middle school. I came home one day from middle school and told her that some of the boys in my class made fun of me because I was doing better than them in math. She went to my teacher and told her that she didn't want her daughter to feel like she couldn't be good at math or to be teased because of it. I didn't know this until recently my mom told me that she herself was the only female engineer where she started working, and gained the respect of her coworkers.
