VOLUNTEER PROFILES

Without our dedicated volunteers, we couldn't do the work that we do. They show up rain or shine (or snow!) and make sure that Meals on Wheels get delivered to the people who need them. We can't say enough about the amazing work our volunteers do and we wanted to share just a few profiles of all the different people who help make Meals on Wheels a success. Thank you volunteers for your commitment!

Respite is an opportunity to get that needed rest and rejuvenation. Turns out it’s not a luxury; it’s an important practice for staying healthy."
