She has since accumulated over 29 years of experience in her field. Prior to coming to MOWGLV, she did accounting for various churches. Most recently, Breckenridge was the CFO at the ARC of the Lehigh Valley for the past three years.<\/p>\n<p>Breckenridge states, \u201cI am excited to part of the Meals on Wheels of the Greater Lehigh Valley team\u201d. Not unfamiliar with the mission of Meals on Wheels programs, she knows the benefits of the program first-hand. She relied on Meals on Wheels while she was the primary caretaker for her elderly mother but also working full-time. \u201cIt was such a big help knowing that some one was visiting my mother each day and bringing her warm meals\u201d. Breckenridge\u2019s family are also supporters of Meals on Wheels, and her aunt is a Meals on Wheels volunteer in Virginia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeg joins a strong team of dedicated professionals who maintain an intense focus on our mission\u201d, said Vicki Coyle, CEO of Meals on Wheels of the Greater Lehigh Valley. \u201cFor a new employee, she has demonstrated an ability to manage tasks with the same interest and compassion as our seasoned employees. I\u2019m looking forward to her playing a vital role in the agency\u2019s future\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mission of Meals on Wheels of the Greater Lehigh Valley<br \/>\n<\/strong>The mission of Meals on Wheels of the Greater Lehigh Valley is to provide homebound seniors and adults with disabilities with freshly prepared nutritious meals, wellness checks and social visits so they can eat well, stay socially connected and remain living independently for as long as they can.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mowglv.org\/about-us\/\"> https:\/\/mowglv.org\/about-us\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Information Provided By:<br \/>\nKeri Young<br \/>\nCommunications Specialist<br \/>\nMeals On Wheels of The Greater Lehigh Valley<br \/>\n4240 Fritch Drive, Bethlehem PA 18020<br \/>\nwww.mowglv.org<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><code class=\"code\">-AMAZONPOLLY-ONLYWORDS-START-<\/code><br \/>\n<div class='adkingprobanner sidebar banner3023'><a href='http:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/' target=\"_blank\" data-id='3023' data-ga='{\"campaign\":\"\",\"banner\":\"\",\"implemented\":\"universal\",\"imp_action\":\"Impression\",\"click_action\":\"Click\"}'><img src='https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/inpostblank.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class='adkingprobanner sidebar banner7036'><a href='http:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com' target=\"_blank\" data-id='7036' data-ga='{\"campaign\":\"\",\"banner\":\"\",\"implemented\":\"universal\",\"imp_action\":\"Impression\",\"click_action\":\"Click\"}'><img src='https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/inpostblank.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/div>\n<code class=\"code\">-AMAZONPOLLY-ONLYWORDS-END-<\/code><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/?post_type=adverts_posts&p=7036\" class=\"read-more\">Click here to read more... <\/a>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":95222,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[69,482],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-95221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-the-valley","category-press-release-2"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Peg-Breckenridge.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95221"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=95221"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95221\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/95222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=95221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=95221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thevalleyledger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=95221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
