Ways to Volunteer
Deliver
Pick up meals from a local senior or community center and hand-deliver them to seniors’ homes. Our volunteers deliver between 9:00-11:00 a.m., and each route takes about one hour to complete.
Friendly Visitors / Friendly Callers
Call or visit a lonely homebound older adult in need of companionship or a helping hand. Most Meals on Wheels visits are for one hour a week, so they’re easy to fit into most schedules.
Gift
Let a senior know they are not forgotten by providing a small holiday gift. Sometimes, it’s the only gift they receive from anyone … and it’s a critical reminder that they matter!
Intern
You will gain valuable experience in case management, adult day care, food and nutrition, human services, communications and more.
Prepare & Serve
Greet senior guests and register them for lunch at a senior center near you. You’ll also assist our staff with preparing food and serving lunch to seniors. Join us weekdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.
Aid
Assist seniors at our Adult Day Care Center with activities or office work. Hours are available weekdays between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. in Anaheim and Buena Park.
Support
Donate one day of meals for a homebound older adult. Your gift will brighten their lives by giving them the nutritious meals and friendly interaction they need.
Advocate
You can be a voice for seniors in need. Become an advocate and help us speak out for those who can’t speak up for themselves.
