Chelsea Senior Center provides low-cost meals to seniors 60 and better who reside in Washtenaw County. In partnership with AgeWays, Washtenaw County Senior Nutrition Program and the Chelsea School District, area seniors have the option of dining in at our daily Senior Café, or for those who are home-bound and/or have difficulty preparing meals, receiving a hot meal delivered by local volunteers up to five days a week.

Senior Café Lunch

Join us at noon each weekday for a hot meal and great fellowship. Please call at least one day in advance to reserve a meal. (If you forget to sign up early, call us the day of. Chances are good we have extras, and you can join us.) 

For more information contact us at 734.475.9242 or Connected@ChelseaSeniors.org.

This is a home-delivered option for seniors who are unable to join us at the Center for our Senior Café Lunch. Participants must be home-bound, 60 or better, and live in Washtenaw County. Receiving home-delivered meals can be a short or long-term decision.

 If you know of someone who could benefit from a friendly check-in and a hot meal delivered, contact us at 734.475.9242 or Connected@ChelseaSeniors.org.
