Become a Meals on Wheels Driver - Arlington

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Minuteman Senior Services

MSS Logo

Make a difference in the lives of seniors in your community!

Meals on Wheels drivers deliver nutritious meals to homebound older adults Monday-Friday for two hours between 11 am -1 pm. We serve seniors in 16 communities north and west of Boston.

As a Meals on Wheels driver, you do much more than deliver a meal -- you provide friendly contact that brightens the lives of homebound older adults. Drivers serve as our eyes and ears, often reporting health and well-being concerns before they become a crisis.

Meals on Wheels is perfect to do on your own or with a friend -- you can partner to share a route or deliver on alternate weeks. No matter how you choose to help, you will see many smiling, grateful faces among the seniors on your route.


This opportunity is in Arlington Center.

Description

For over 45 years, Minuteman Senior Services has been helping older and disabled adults age with independence and dignity in the setting of their choice which is most often their own homes and communities. We have been supporting caregivers, local and long distance, who want to do the right thing for their loved ones and need help and advice as they balance the competing demands of family, work and self.

With over 130 employees, 400+ volunteers and over 70 subcontracted service providers that make up our provider network, we bring expertise, experience and resources to you and your family.

As a non-profit organization we are passionate about our mission to help you face the challenges of aging, disability and caregiving by helping you make informed decisions and get access to the help you need that fits within your means. Many of our services are free of charge, others are available on a sliding fee or private pay basis.
