Do you have one or two hours per week to give back to your community? Dunkirk-Fredonia Meals on Wheels needs volunteers to join our team!
Become a Meals on Wheels Driver today and help support our vision that no senior goes hungry or experiences social isolation.
- Volunteers practice non-contact delivery and deliver a week’s worth of meals to each senior.
- Meals are delivered Monday-Friday between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m.
- Delivery routes take about 1.5 hours to complete.
Prerequisites:
- Driver must be 18 years and older.
- Must submit valid driver’s license and auto insurance.
- Successfully complete and pass a criminal background check.
- Lifting up to 25lbs repetitively and an SUV or vehicle with the back seats down required.
- Willingness to use own vehicle to deliver meals to assigned addresses.
- Take time to check in with the client. Your delivery is a wellness check!
Volunteers:
Volunteers deliver meals to homebound seniors and others with limited mobility who are unable to cook and have no one to prepare meals for them on a consistent basis. Volunteer delivery routes are primarily in Dunkirk and Fredonia. Most routes can be completed in less than an hour and training is provided.
Couples, friends, churches, service clubs, or corporate sponsors are welcome to join in our community effort!
