About This Chance
Did you know we make and deliver hundreds of meals daily from Monday through Friday? The Meals on Wheels program provides older adults and adults with different abilities (who for various reasons are unable to cook their own meals) with hot and/or frozen nutritious meals. Meals are delivered by volunteers over the lunch hour, while also providing a short friendly chat and a check on their wellbeing; enabling our clients in Waterloo Region to live at home with independence and dignity. During a Meals on Wheels delivery shift, volunteers will:
Deliver hot and/or frozen meals to clients as per the order given on the route sheets (approximately 7-13 clients, varying on the day and service demand)
Meals are picked up from our Breslau office and delivered around Waterloo Region
Carry out brief security check and provide social contact to clients
Report any undelivered meals or absent clients to the office
Report any concerns you may have about clients to the office
Treat all information regarding clients on your route with complete confidentiality
Mileage reimbursements are provided monthly.
