Mayor Offers Update On Senior Center Finances

Mt. Carmel Mayor Joe Judge is thanking Wabash County Commissioners for their recent $10,000 donation to the WC Cafeteria and Senior Center… 

Judge said the state prevents the city from charging a set fee for the senior center meals and instead lists a suggested donation. He said those donations have really dropped off in the last six months. Combined with increasing food costs, the senior center has been struggling with its’ finances. Judge said it’s appreciated if those getting meals can pay the suggested donation if they’re able.
