    The Council on Aging will present Lake County’s 19th edition of March for Meals on Saturday, March 28, 2026, from 8 am to 10 am at the Great Lakes Mall in Mentor.

    March for Meals isn't just a fundraiser — it's a lifeline. With your unwavering support, we can continue delivering vital nutrition and warm smiles to Lake County’s seniors, combatting isolation among our cherished older adults with every step we take together.

    The March for Meals this year will include two options – join us IN PERSON for an indoor walk at the Great Lakes Mall on Saturday, March 28th, or sign up to walk virtually wherever you are!

    If you’ve been with us in the past, you know what a fun and exciting morning March for Meals will be. If you haven't experienced March For Meals, we look forward to seeing you on March 28th. Participants can join individually or as part of a walk team. In addition to camaraderie and walking for a great cause, participants will receive morning refreshments – fresh fruit, juice and breakfast bar, a goodie bag, and musical entertainment.

    ​A commemorative t-shirt is optional ($15). Please indicate your size during checkout.
