Dalhart mayor proclaims April 2025 Senior Hunger Awareness Month
Summary
At its April 28 meeting, the Dalhart City Council read a proclamation designating April 2025 as Senior Hunger Awareness Month and recognized local organizations that serve older residents facing food insecurity.
Mayor James Stroud read a proclamation at the April 28 Dalhart City Council meeting declaring April 2025 as Senior Hunger Awareness Month, asking residents to recognize local organizations that provide meals and food support to older adults.
The proclamation said senior hunger is driven by transportation problems, social isolation and health and income issues, and named Good Samaritan, Christian Service, Brick Street Community Center and Meals on Wheels as local partners serving seniors in Dallam and Hartley counties. The mayor urged residents to honor those organizations, volunteers and the seniors they serve.
Council members gathered for a photograph after the proclamation and the mayor presented the text to representatives. The proclamation did not create a new program or allocate funding; it was presented as a recognition of local providers and volunteers.
The proclamation was read during the regular council meeting agenda and no formal vote or funding decision accompanied the presentation.
