Krista Manning

Krista Manning serves as Secretary for the Meals For The Elderly Board of Directors and has been a dedicated volunteer meal delivery driver since 2016. Through her weekly route, she has developed meaningful connections with recipients and gained a firsthand understanding of the challenges many face, including isolation, financial hardship, and declining health.

Many of the individuals she serves are longtime members of the San Angelo community, having spent their lives working in local schools, businesses, and organizations. Krista values the time she spends with them, listening to their stories, talking about books and movies, and learning from their resilience.

She believes it is important to show up for others, especially for those who may not have family nearby or access to additional care. For Krista, being part of someone’s day is a simple but powerful way to make a difference. Each visit is a reminder that connection matters, and she often leaves feeling she has received far more than she gave.
