VNA Meals on Wheels - Meal Delivery Volunteers Needed

Flexible Schedule | Dallas, TX 75247

I appreciate your interest in volunteering for VNA Meals on Wheels! As we continue to face the uncertainties of this pandemic, thousands of Dallas County seniors are counting on the support of individuals such as yourself to provide them with the companionship, compassion, and kindness they need, especially during the increased isolation following COVID. In efforts to continue providing the friendship our clients depend on, VNA Meals on Wheels has volunteer opportunities that allow Individuals, Corporate, and Community Partners to assist in continuing to care for our hungry, homebound seniors. This can be done by signing up as a VNA Meals on Wheels volunteer. All volunteers are now required to become fully onboarded (complete volunteer application, consent to and pass a background check, and complete the online training). The onboarding process can take anywhere from 24-48 hrs. 1. To start the volunteer onboarding process, please copy and paste the following link https://volunteer.vnatexas.org/Registration in Google Chrome. This will take you to the "Volunteer Registration" page. 2. To sign up as a new individual volunteer, click "I'm an Individual" and fill out all information to create an account. 3. After creating your account, you will be asked to complete online training and successfully pass a background check (as mandated by the State of Texas). NOTE: If you do not pass your background check, you can not volunteer for VNA. 4. Once you have successfully onboarded as a volunteer, you'll be able to sign up for a recurring (ongoing) route or a one-time route in an area that works best for you. Special events such as Group Days of Caring, holiday meal deliveries, and monthly pet food deliveries are available through the volunteer portal as well. Meal deliveries are Monday - Friday between 10 am and 1:30 pm and can last anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. We have 27 different meal pick-up locations around Dallas County. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. We appreciate your interest in serving Dallas County seniors!

My kids and I volunteered with VNA, through their Meals on Wheels program and LOVED it! It is very organized, and so many of the people on our route were so nice and very grateful for a friendly face to bring their food. We volunteered one day a week. Yet the VNA is so good at making everyone feel like they are angels. I highly recommend this program!
