Meals on Wheels OC volunteer driver Reza Mir is passionate about helping seniors. Not only does he work with older adults professionally as a certified Senior Care Advisor, he also spends his free time delivering meals twice a week in Fullerton, Seal Beach, and Brea. “I love it!” said Reza. “Helping seniors is a passion and what I want to do to help the community.”
While always practicing safe meal delivery protocol, Reza offers a friendly “How are you doing?” to every client because personal connections are even more critical in this time. Meal deliveries are uplifting for homebound seniors, and acts of kindness are life-enriching for volunteers. For Reza, volunteering also provides a refreshing change from the virtual world. As a member of the OC Digital Rotary, Reza shares his enthusiasm with others who wish to serve. “I lead by example,”
he said. “I tell people, get off the computer, get in a car, and deliver Meals on Wheels!”
