KENOSHA, Wis. — The Kenosha Police Department took an active role this week in supporting Kenosha Area Family and Aging Services Inc.’s annual March for Meals celebration, with Kenosha Police Chief Patrick Patton personally joining Meals on Wheels volunteers to deliver food to residents.
The five-day event highlighted the importance of the Meals on Wheels program and the volunteers who help deliver meals to seniors and people with disabilities throughout Kenosha County.
Patton participated Wednesday as one of several community leaders who joined volunteers on delivery routes. In addition to supporting the program publicly, Patton personally went out and delivered meals to residents, underscoring the department’s involvement in serving vulnerable members of the community.
The Kenosha Police Department said it was proud to partner with Kenosha Area Family and Aging Services Inc. during March for Meals to help deliver Meals on Wheels to residents throughout the community.
“The Kenosha Police Department was proud to partner with Kenosha Area Family and Aging Services, Inc. during March for Meals to help deliver Meals on Wheels to residents throughout our community,” the department said in a statement. “Chief Patton, along with Officers Diaz and Santos, had a great time connecting with residents, sharing smiles, and helping make a positive impact one delivery at a time.
“Thank you to KAFASI for all that you do to serve our community, we’re grateful to be a part of it!”
KAFASI Executive Director Shebaniah Judah said the need for meal assistance for seniors continues to grow as the population ages.
“Your support, volunteering and donations are critical and vital for our seniors in Kenosha County,” Judah said.
Meals on Wheels provides meals to people over age 60 who are unable to prepare food for themselves or who are at risk of entering a nursing home. Volunteers deliver meals throughout the city and county between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Judah said volunteer drivers do more than simply drop off food. They also provide regular wellness checks and social interaction for recipients who may otherwise spend much of their day alone.
The March for Meals week also included daily community awareness events and opportunities for guests to ride along with volunteer drivers.

Why are they wearing on duty uniform if they are volunteer? Were paid squads included too?
Well the Chief is on duty all the time
Pathetic,
Are the puppetmasters of Kenosha so brain dead to think they can be protected from accountability for their crimes by propping up local law enforcement and DA offices?
When Man is stirred up by The creator can anything stop his outstretched arm?
Mossad maybe can? Please.
And please continue oh puppetmasters for you are so cunning and surely will keep getting away with your crimes. What is the worst that could happen? Get sent to IsraHell with your dual citizenship. That would not be a golden cage you would be free. That would not make you “ducks in a barrell” for your enemies to take advantage of. Dont listen to any of that conspiracy theory nonsense just keep bringing it on humanity. I am sure they will love you in the end for your nephlihm intrigueing BS
