About Us

Our Staff

Meals-on-Wheels has two staff members and more than 120 volunteers who donate their time to help others. Executive Director Susanna Sussman joined Meals-on-Wheels of White Plains in August 2006. She earned a Bachelors degree from Washington University in St. Louis and a Masters in Public Administration from NYU's Wagner School. More than 120 volunteers help to deliver meals for Meals-on-Wheels of White Plains. They include retirees, students, parents, and employees of local companies. What they have in common is a dedication to helping others and the ability to give an hour and a half of their time on a weekday or occasional Saturday.
