WESTLAKE, Ohio — Equity Trust Company raised thousands of dollars for Meals on Wheels.

Meals on Wheels serves Westlake, Bay Village, North Olmsted, Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township.

They feed 80 people per day.

Equity Trust Company was able to raise $4,270 to help with the cost of providing food to these 80 people two meals per day.

“During this time of need, we felt it was important for us to give back to our local community and do our part in assuring that these 80 residents had the food that they needed,” said Matt Collier, Equity Trust employee and co-chair of the GIVE Committee. “Our employees stepped up to the challenge and in a very short time and put together this donation that we hope will get our neighbors through these next couple of months.”

Their donation will allow Meals on Wheels Westlake to purchase a two-month supply of bread, rolls, and milk and enable the organization to utilize local family-owned restaurants to help prepare their meals while their kitchen is closed.
