A popular organization that provides food and companionship to millions of seniors around the country is at risk of losing its funding in President Donald Trump's new budget — and people are incensed.

In the White House's preliminary budget released Thursday, funding for the Community Development Block Grant is eliminated entirely. Some of that grant money goes toward Meals on Wheels, a program that utilizes volunteers to bring food to millions of senior citizens.

Along with giving free or inexpensive meals to needy seniors, Meals on Wheels is often the only human interaction that seniors living alone get each day. Meals on Wheels also bills itself as a free safety check for seniors.

"The safety check that accompanies each meal delivery ensures that, in the case of an emergency or problem, medics will be called, families will be notified and our seniors will not be forgotten," Meals on Wheels says on their website.

Cutting their funding is bad optics for the Trump administration, but losing this money isn't necessarily a death knell for Meals on Wheels. According to their 2015 report, the majority of their funding comes from corporate and foundation grants and individual contributions. Government grants made up three percent of their revenues, or $248,347 in 2015.

However, Meals on Wheels has been advocating for further funding, as they're currently only able to serve about a third of the 25 million people over 60 who are below or near the poverty line. The Meals on Wheels Association of America told CNN they could serve 19 million fewer meals as a result of various budget cuts.
