Lifescape Executive Director Carol Green said: “We are grateful to the State of Illinois, especially Sen. Stadelman. The savings we will realize with this blast freezer will allow us to better serve our clients.”
Lifescape offers frozen meals to clients who need additional nutrition on the weekends or holidays. On average, Lifescape delivers about 20,000 frozen meals a year.
“Currently, we must buy these meals at a high cost,” Green said. “The new freezer allows us to freeze our own meals, which will save us a significant amount of money.”
The blast freezer will be unveiled at a press event at noon, Tuesday, Dec. 9, at Lifescape’s Administrative Offices, 705 Kilburn Ave., Rockford.
Lifescape Community Services, Inc., is the largest agency in northwestern Illinois serving older adults, families and caregivers. Best known for its Home Delivered Meals program (Meals on Wheels), Lifescape operates in Winnebago, Boone, Lee and Ogle counties
