I deliver MOW in upstate NY. The recipients, besides qualifying, get a bill for each meal and are charged for a meal if they aren't home to accept it. The meals are ordered one day in advance, so they must cancel a meal the day before or earlier. The undelivered meals cannot be taken off the MOW premises due to possible contamination (they are delivered hot). In some places, a volunteer may consume that meal on the premises. How did this 82 year old qualify AND not pay?
