What is Meal Auction?

For 40 years, Breen-Phillips Hall has been raising money for Meals on Wheels through the annual Meal Auction. Meal Auction provides the opportunity to win, not only auction prizes, but also meals and experiences with campus celebrities. This year, we are honored to have participation from several campus celebrities, including iconic professors like Carl Ackermann, our ND legend head women's basketball coach Niele Ivey, and both the current University president Fr. John Jenkins and our president-elect Fr. Bob Dowd. Auction items include a meal and a practice to observe with ND Football, signed jersey from your 2023 NCAA National Champion Men's Lacrosse team, a Keurig, a night's stay at the Morris Inn, and so much more!

What is Meals on Wheels?

Meals on Wheels, REAL Services, and their team of generous volunteers deliver meals in St. Joseph and Elkhart counties to our neighbors of 60 years of age or older who can neither prepare adequate meals for themselves nor have meals prepared for them. This program serves thousands in our community in great need, and it is essential in providing nourishment—helping clients to remain healthy, reducing hospital stays, promoting faster healing, and supplying essential companionship. Over 160,000 meals are delivered annually to the St. Joseph and Elkhart counties.
