Homes by Taber
Homes by Taber was founded in 2000 by Taber and Julie LeBlanc and has grown to be the largest home builder in Oklahoma. This local business first supported Edmond Mobile Meals in 2019, as one of the nonprofit recipients of their philanthropic Taber Cares program. The Taber Cares program selects charities through an annual application process. Edmond Mobile Meals was honored to have been selected as a beneficiary of the Taber Cares program again in 2021. Julie LeBlanc told us why they choose to support Edmond Mobile Meals. “Edmond Mobile Meals is near and dear to our hearts because we’ve all had loved ones at some type in our lives that became home bound and depended on family and friends. Getting the opportunity to help provide and deliver a warm meal with a friendly face and smile is the least we could do for our community! We love Edmond Mobile Meals and their dedication to our community!” In the first half of 2021, Taber Cares donated $235,000 to twelve different nonprofit organizations in the area.
Taber Cares not only provides generous financial support to local nonprofits, but also looks for volunteer opportunities for their employees to get involved allowing them to volunteer during work hours. Teams of Homes by Taber employees have delivered meals with us on many occasions.
Carol & Mike Wilson
Carol Wilson began volunteering with Edmond Mobile Meals back when we had a just one volunteer “employee” position and just a few routes. She has watched the program flourish into many more routes, more volunteers, more employees, better meals, weekend meals, special treats for the clients and more. She believes that the program has become an outstanding service to our community thanks to wonderful directors, employees, and volunteers. Carol loves getting to know the clients on her delivery routes, and it gives her great satisfaction to know that she has helped brighten their day. She knows that besides the nutritious meals, we provide possibly the only human contact for the day, a chance to brag about grand and great-grandchildren, a willing ear during more difficult times and important well checks.
Carol and Mike strongly believe in supporting their community. They are honored to share their gifts with those in our community who have less or are in circumstances where they just need a little help from caring people. The Wilsons believe it benefits the whole community to take care of our elders and assist them in staying in their own homes for as long as possible. And when they find an organization whose goals are consistent with theirs, they think it is important to help those nonprofits accomplish their hard work by giving whatever we can towards that end.
