Meals on Wheels is looking for volunteers to deliver meals to housebound seniors and adults with disabilities in our community. We offer meals hand-delivered by volunteers Monday through Friday. Volunteers provide our neighbors with a connection to the community and a warm, friendly smile when they arrive at the door.

FAQs

Q: Who should volunteer?

A: Anyone looking to make a difference! Volunteering is a great opportunity for all community members with flexible schedules.

Q: Are there any requirements for volunteers?

A: Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age or older, with a valid Oregon driver’s license and auto insurance. Volunteers use their own vehicles to complete deliveries. All Meals on Wheels volunteers will be required to complete a background check prior to volunteering.

Q: Do I need to have a car?

A: Reliable transportation is required.

Q: When can I volunteer?

A: Meals are delivered between 10:30-12:30, Monday through Friday. Volunteers can deliver as often as they like - once a week, a couple of times a week, or as an on-call driver when extra support is needed. Choose the day and frequency that works best for you.
