If you can spare one hour to deliver meals, one day every week and one gallon of gas - then Meals on Wheels needs you! Help us deliver meals to the homebound elderly and disabled people living in your neighborhood.

You can be the one who brightens someone’s day by knocking on their door and deliver nutritious Meals on Wheels.

Meals on Wheels is dedicated to ensuring that every member of the community has access to nutritious meals so he or she can continue living independently.

The Meals on Wheels program serves over 700 seniors each day in Livingston County and Western Oakland County with the help of local contributors and volunteers. Our program assists those who are unable to prepare nutritious meals for themselves because of age, illness, or disability. No one is denied meals because of an inability to pay. It’s our volunteers that make this critical service possible.

We are in desperate need of drivers to deliver food to our homebound seniors. Volunteers do more than simply deliver a meal. They also provide a quick check in, a connection to the community and a warm smile. Often, the volunteer is the only person a meal recipient may see all day. And when children are part of the delivery team, our clients are especially pleased.

We also have many other individual and team volunteer opportunities to support the many programs we have, spark your creativity, and also deepen your volunteer experience. These are not time consuming volunteer opportunities, but they are however, very rewarding.  Help make a difference in the lives of our seniors.

We believe that the meal recipient isn’t the only one who benefits when you deliver meals individually, as a team, or as a family. We think you will, too.

Many thanks for your invaluable help.
