As the world leader in volunteerism we feel a responsibility to unite our broader community, and to use this moment to learn from one another, to grow, and to become stronger.

Helping people feel good, do better, and find solutions
As a Home-Delivered Meals Driver, you will use your vehicle to provide hot meals to home-bound older adults. You will pick up the meals at a predefined location. The meals are delivered between 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Meals Drivers help older adults maintain their independence in their own homes. Not only do you provide healthy, nutritious meals and a friendly smile, but you also act as a direct link to the outside world for many home-bound older adults.
