    Description

    Pack meals for Saint Paul seniors on a weekly or on-call basis

    You can support the well-being and independence of your neighbors. Help older adults and adults with limited mobility stay nourished and connected by volunteering with Wilder’s Meals on Wheels. Volunteer packers visit our site to warm hot meals and/or pack frozen meals and additional items for each participant. This role is a great fit for someone who is detail-oriented and who can work together with a small team of volunteers and staff. After you pack meals, volunteer drivers deliver them to St. Paul neighbors.

    Current openings:

    • Volunteer on-call to fill in with Monday-Friday morning options
    • Monday morning opening
