Addressing a Hidden Need: Incontinence Supplies for Seniors

Over the past eight years, Meals on Wheels Montgomery County has quietly tackled a significant  yet often overlooked need for our seniors. What started as a small initiative to help a handful of  clients has grown into an essential program that supports many seniors in our community: our  Incontinence Supply Program.  

For seniors living on fixed incomes, purchasing necessary incontinence supplies can be a heavy  financial burden. Unfortunately, most insurance plans don’t cover these items, and grants rarely  fund them. This leaves many of our clients struggling to afford products that are vital to their  dignity, comfort, and health.  

Why Your Support Matters  

The need for incontinence supplies is real and urgent. Without them, seniors may face challenges  that go beyond physical discomfort—they can experience emotional distress, isolation, and even  health complications. By providing these supplies, we’re not just meeting a basic need but  helping seniors maintain their quality of life and independence.  

This program is entirely community-supported, which means we rely on the generosity of people  like you to keep it going. Every donation ensures that seniors in need receive the care and  support they deserve.
