Age Well, the area agency on aging for Addison, Chittenden, Franklin, and Grand Isle counties in Northwestern Vermont, is in urgent need of Meals on Wheels volunteers in the Burlington and South Burlington areas.
“Meals on Wheels serve those in need by delivering fresh, nutritious food to seniors and others in need,” explained Meals on Wheels Volunteer Coordinator Laura Need. “In addition Meals on Wheels volunteers are often the only friendly face a senior may see all day. It is a great way for volunteers feel connected to their local community. Volunteers can do once a week or once a month, whatever works for them. This is also a fun activity for grandparents to do with their grandchildren this summer or stay-at-home parents to do with their children.”
Meals on Wheels are delivered Monday-Friday starting at 9 a.m. It takes up to two hours to complete a delivery. To participate, contact the Volunteer Office at 802-662-5254 or send an email to Laura at lneed@agewell.org.
