IMPORTANT COVID-19 UPDATE:
The following is an update for our seniors and volunteers.
Due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus, we are implementing the following safeguards to protect our senior clients as well as our volunteers.
We are utilizing a no-contact delivery protocol. We have asked volunteers to place meals in bags to cut down on the passing of germs. Volunteers should place meals in a bag, knock on the door or ring the doorbell, and hang the meals on a handle at the door. In addition, volunteers should call clients that have difficulty in getting to the door right away, to let them know their meal is at the door. As for seniors that cannot come to the door, we would like to leave meals hanging inside of the door for you, but we can discuss that case by case.
We have disposable gloves and plastic bags available for volunteers upon request.
While this pandemic is ever-changing, we will continue to assess the situation daily and ensure that we are following all suggested protocols while guaranteeing the homebound in our community remain safe, healthy and fed.
If you should have any questions or concerns, please call us at 828-253-5286.

Tickets on sale through June 28, 2020We know how completely odd it seems to be raffling off a trip to London right now. We’re barely leaving our homes for any reason, so jetting off around the world seems flat out bonkers! We’re hopeful that international travel and fun vacations will happen again in the future – and that’s why we extended and amended the raffle prize! If you win, you can choose the trip to London (and you have 18 months to book your travel) OR you can choose to take the cash value of the trip instead ($10,000). Our raffles have been important fundraisers for ACT over the years, and this one is no different. ACT has lost 85% of our income as an organization, so this raffle is one of the few ways we can continue to bring a little money in the door. Buying a raffle ticket is a great way to support ACT right now – and it just might be you who gets some really great news from us! |
