    Description

    Become a Meals on Wheels Driver at Drake Village Apartments, MA

    This opportunity is limited to delivering meals to the Drake Village apartments only!

    Make a difference in the lives of older adults in your community! Meals on Wheels drivers deliver nutritious meals to homebound older adults Monday-Friday for two hours between 11 am -1 pm. We serve older adults in 16 communities north and west of Boston.

    As a Meals on Wheels driver, you do much more than deliver a meal -- you provide friendly contact that brightens the lives of homebound older adults. Drivers serve as our eyes and ears, often reporting health and well-being concerns before they become a crisis.

    Meals on Wheels is perfect to do on your own or with a friend -- you can partner to share a route or deliver on alternate weeks. No matter how you choose to help, you will see many smiling, grateful faces among the seniors on your route.

    1 shift available:

    • Monday - Friday only: 11:00 to 13:00 EST

    Location

    On-site
    Hauser Building, 37 Drake Road, Arlington, Massachusetts, US
