Are you looking for a low-commitment, high impact volunteer opportunity? Consider delivering hot, nutritious meals to the doors of homebound seniors.
According to research conducted by Meals on Wheels America, seniors who receive home-delivered meals on a daily basis are more likely to experience improved mental health, decreased isolation and loneliness, and less worry about being able to remain at home.
Time Commitment: 1 delivery route = 1 hour during the lunch hour
- Volunteer once p/ week, once p/ month, or occasionally based on your availability
Impact: Volunteers serve 5-10 seniors p/ delivery route

[*** Volunteers who are 55+ are eligible to receive free volunteer benefits including partial travel reimbursement, supplemental insurance, volunteer recognition + more! *** ]
