Becoming a Meals on Wheels volunteer for CareLink takes just 1 hour a week. Volunteers pick up 10-15 meals and deliver them to homebound seniors in Little Rock, North Little Rock, or Maumelle, providing both essential nutrition and a friendly visit. This service is a lifeline, improving the health and well-being of older adults in our community. By volunteering, you make a direct, tangible impact on the lives of seniors. Meals on Wheels ensures they receive not just a hot meal, but also vital social interaction, often being the only personal contact they have all day. The time commitment is manageable-just one lunch hour each week, Monday through Friday. CareLink offers comprehensive training, established routes, and convenient meal pick-up locations, making the process simple and efficient. Whether you're an individual or part of a group, volunteering provides a meaningful way to engage with your community. Corporate teams, church groups, and businesses are also encouraged to join, fostering team spirit and enhancing community involvement. Take inspiration from Cathy and Mike, a retired couple who have been Meals on Wheels volunteers for over eight years. They’ve built lasting relationships with clients, finding joy in the gratitude and friendships they've formed. Cathy, for example, has become close friends with a 98-year-old client, even visiting her outside of meal deliveries. Volunteering with CareLink’s Meals on Wheels Program offers fulfillment, a chance to give back, and the opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life. Apply today and help ensure no neighbor goes hungry or feels isolated. With just one hour of your time, you can brighten someone’s day-and transform your own.
