    Description

    Join Meals on Wheels People for our largest fundraiser of the year, Donate Dinner, and help ensure older adults in our community have access to nutritious meals this holiday season. We’re looking for hundreds of volunteers to support this annual campaign by signing up for a 2-hour shift between November 18–25. Grab a friend, family member, or coworker and make a difference together!

    As a Donate Dinner volunteer, you'll greet shoppers and encourage participation in the campaign at local grocery stores, including New Seasons Market, Jim’s Thriftway, and Market of Choice. Your presence has a real impact: stores with volunteers raise three times more donations than locations without on-site support.

    Donate Dinner is a fun, rewarding, and meaningful way to give back during the holiday season, and we rely on hundreds of volunteers each year to make this campaign a success.
