Southborough’s Meals on Wheels program is again seeking volunteers to make deliveries.
They are looking for drivers to help on one or more of the following shifts:
- Every other Monday
- Tuesdays or every other Tuesday
- Every other Wednesday
- Every other Friday
Each route takes only a few hours to complete.
Meals on Wheels is part of the Senior Center’s Elderly Nutrition Program. It’s run by BayPath Elder Services. The program “delivers nutritious meals to seniors who are unable to leave their homes due to illness, disability, or frailty.”
Meals are picked up at the Westboro Senior Center and delivered to Southborough seniors. You can read more about the Southborough service here.
If you are interested in volunteering please contact Baypath Elder Services 508-573-7210 and ask to speak with Denise Menzdorf.
Please consider volunteering for Meals on Wheels. It’s a great organization and you can drive once a week, or once a month or even act as a substitute. They especially need volunteers in the summer. I did Meals on Wheels deliveries for 13 years in Southborough. I met some really great people during those years. It’s a square meal for some who have difficulty cooking for themselves and it’s a daily check in for some who have family far away or maybe no family at all. I moved out of state last year and it’s the only reason I stopped.
