    Dec 24, 2024 | highgroundnews.com | Jeff Hulett

    Over the past year, the High Ground Team has focused on diving deep into the More for Memphis plan: What it is, what’s new, and more. This week, we recap and put a bow on it as the plan is set in motion.

It’s a topic that is especially important in the greater Memphis area, which has the third-highest senior food insecurity rates in the country.

    Oct 30, 2024 | highgroundnews.com | Sarah Spohn

    Although a large portion of MIFA’s programming is Meals on Wheels, the nonprofit organization also provides nourishment to seniors who are hungry for connection. This “more than a meal” approach to service includes Claris Companion tablets and MIphone Buddy volunteer programs which both help to address social isolation. Founded in 1968, MIFA aims to unite the community through service, focusing on increasing and supporting the independence of vulnerable seniors and families in crisis.
