Order a Pie - Support a Senior

The Meals on Wheels annual Bust-a-Crust Thanksgiving pie fundraiser supports their mission to provide seniors with essential services. Together, we ensure everyone has a fulfilling holiday.

All proceeds from pie sales and sponsorships directly benefit the essential services we provide to seniors and older adults. By ordering a pie for $15 each, you help Meals on Wheels drive their mission to keep seniors healthy, fed and safeduring the holiday season and all year long!

The 2025 Bust-a-Crust fundraiser is presented by Sara Lee and features three of their favorite frozen pie flavors: pecan, apple and pumpkin 10-in. pies. Bust-a-Crust serves up an ideal way to combine philanthropy with showing your gratitude for your teams, clients and customers ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday!

Deadline to order your pie is Friday, November 14
