The BeachMoto Aid is dedicated to combating hunger among seniors in Daytona Beach through our vital meal programs. We support initiatives like Meals on Wheels and congregate meal sites, ensuring that seniors receive nutritious meals tailored to their dietary needs. Your donations directly address the growing demand for such services, as many seniors struggle to access adequate nutrition due to mobility challenges, isolation, and limited financial resources.
Every dollar you contribute is leveraged for maximum impact, helping to fund programs that not only deliver meals but also assess nutritional risks and provide essential safety check-ins. Your support helps ensure that our seniors can enjoy their golden years with dignity and proper nutrition, while also receiving vital companionship and peace of mind during meal deliveries.

↗Real impact, real numbers
Your generous donation can have a significant impact on the lives of local seniors. For every $1,500 raised, we can deliver over 200 home-delivered meals to homebound seniors, complete with safety checks to ensure their well-being. Alternatively, the same amount can provide over 400 nutritious meals at congregate sites, fostering community and social engagement among seniors. With just $2,500, you can help fund the delivery of 300+ meals or support even more congregate meal events, making a tangible difference in our community. Every meal provided is a step toward reducing hunger and improving the quality of life for seniors in Daytona Beach.
How we vet recipient partners
At BeachMoto Aid, we ensure that all partner programs are rigorously vetted for quality and accountability. We prioritize organizations that are contracted with Area Agencies on Aging, adhere to federal and state standards, and align with the Older Americans Act Title III-C nutrition standards. By focusing on programs with no or short waiting lists, we can guarantee that your donations will reach those who need them most without delay.
How proceeds flow
After the necessary costs for towing and processing are deducted, approximately 70-80% of the gross proceeds from vehicle auctions are directed to our partner programs. These funds are then allocated based on the specific needs and operational ratios of the meal programs we support, ensuring your contributions directly enhance the lives of seniors in Daytona Beach.

Your support helps bridge the gap and ensures that seniors in our community have access to the nutrition they deserve.
