Have you wanted to make a difference in someone's life but didn't know how to get involved? Here's your chance! We are House of Neighborly Service, a non-profit organization dedicated to delivering meals to seniors in the Westside area.
---
Our mission is to bring joy to older adults by providing them with meals they can enjoy. As a volunteer, you will deliver meals in your personal vehicle within the 78207 Zip code. Our meal coolers are 42 inches long, 19 inches wide, and 20 inches deep (Igloo 150-Qt. Maxcold Performance Cooler), and they fit most SUVs and 4-door cars in the back seat or trunk.
Our older adults are incredible individuals, living through their golden years with grace and determination. Their stories are full of triumphs and challenges, love and loss. If you have a few hours a week to spare, we would love your help! Whether it's driving, delivering meals, or assisting with marketing and special events, we have a place for you.

Bringing a Guest?: If you plan to bring a guest on your delivery, please ensure they also register and complete the "Agency Volunteer Form". Additionally, notify us of all names in your party so we can record it as one delivery instead of two.
Please complete the "Agency Volunteer Form" after registering for a shift. If you’ve already completed it for previous registrations, you do not need to fill it out again.
Cancellations and Declinations: If your registration is declined or canceled, it may be because we are fully booked for that day or because we will be closed on that date. Thank you for understanding. If you sign up for a Monday shift over the weekend, please plan to arrive on time.
For any questions about volunteering, please contact Nicole Alonso at volunteer@hns-tx.org or call at 210-314-2925.

Mission Statement
House of Neighborly Service provides opportunities which encourage, educate, and empower the families of our Westside community.
Description
House of Neighborly Service (HNS) has been providing social services to the children, families and seniors of San Antonio’s Westside for over 100 years. Our mission is realized through four primary program areas:
- Family Support: HNS prevents child abuse and neglect and helps families prepare their children for school through our Early Intervention Program. This involves parenting education, developmental and mental health evaluations, individual service planning and implementation, and respite care.
- Child Development: Our Kid’s Place Child Development and Treatment Center improves the social-emotional development of children enrolled in its multi-age classes while also addressing physical and intellectual development.
- Senior Health: We provide the seniors of our community with nutritional meals and meaningful activities to promote their physical and mental health.
- Food Security: Our food distribution program provides weekly boxes of fresh produce and other healthy food items.
These programs provide vital services that meet the identified needs of our Westside community throughout the lifespan.
