Meals/Year

Mobile Meals of Hamilton Township, Inc., organized in 1975, delivers hot, nutritious meals to Hamilton residents whose physical, mental or social conditions require a home-delivered meal service. Qualified individuals are homebound, chronically ill, handicapped or convalescing. Age or financial ability is not a factor. There is no limit on length of service although it varies with each individual client. The objective of Mobile Meals of Hamilton Township, Inc. is to aid in providing adequate nutrition for the elderly and handicapped. This service enables them to maintain health and independence in their home for a longer period. Daily meal delivery also decreases the feeling of isolation often experienced by the homebound. Hot afternoon meals are professionally planned and prepared by Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital at Hamilton dietary staff. Meals are delivered five days a week by a group of caring and dedicated volunteers.

Robert Ingersoll so aptly stated: "We rise by lifting others." Join us, feel the rush of doing work to help others.

 

We deliver meals each weekday via four different routes through the township. The whole process requires less than 2 hours of your time beginning at 10:45am.

A life well lived.

A friend, compassionate and empathetic. Please take a moment to read about Dr. Venkateswaraiyer Subramoni, "Dr. V", who will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

Many years ago, Mobile Meals of Hamilton Township made a friend…a very special friend… Dr. Venkateswaraiyer Subramoni, a well known, compassionate human being who just happened to be a doctor. Most of his patients considered him their friend. He brought a warm and friendly feel to his profession, listening to the concerns of his patients, deciding on their treatment, spending time with them, talking about their families, sports, and their personal interests. His patients knew his time was precious, yet he was offering himself to them during that visit. His long time Office Manager, Shirley Gray told me that it was not uncommon for him to make house calls to those who had difficulty getting around.
It comes as no surprise that our paths would cross as we both committed ourselves to making a difference in the lives of our friends and neighbors in Hamilton. "Dr. V” was acutely aware of the needs of those in our community – as a Staff Physician at Robert Wood Johnson Barnabas Health, then known as Hamilton Hospital, he knew if someone was alone and what they would need upon discharge. At the top of the list was nutrition, a key component of healing…our program was at the top of his list, especially when the convalescence of his beloved patients was at stake.
Through the years, he never forgot Mobile Meals of Hamilton, referring patients to our program when a home delivered meal service was needed. Everyone knew "Dr. V”, and when they spoke of him, there was a common theme…how this kind man gave of himself to help his patients and how he had the gift of making them feel like family.
Recently, I received a phone call from Dr. Jaya Subramoni, his wife of 52 years, informing me of his passing. The pandemic did not allow us to say goodbye, but "Dr. V” will remain in the hearts of those associated with Mobile Meals of Hamilton Township and its cause. He and his family, his dear wife Jaya, daughter Meena and son Raja have bestowed a financial gift to our organization to memorialize Dr. Venkateswaraiyer Subramoni. This will allow us to continue to assist all of our neighbors in Hamilton who request home delivered meals when their lives dictate it, regardless of their ability to pay.
I extend heartfelt thanks to the Subramoni Family on behalf of the Board of Directors and the many clients whose lives were touched by this exceptional man.
