Deliver Meals on Wheels to Homebound Senior Adults!

Join MIFA's Meals on Wheels Volunteer Family, and help deliver meals to seniors, primarily elderly women in single family homes, who are home-bound for reasons of age and infirmity. Make a tangible difference you can see in real time in the life of our senior clients- each time you hand them a hot, nourishing meal, ask them how they are doing and spread some sunshine into their day!

Meals on Wheels runs every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Volunteers arrive between 9am to 10 am to pick up their clients' meals and deliver them with a smile. Each route consists of 10-20 seniors and takes between 1.5-2 hours. However, each route gives you 3 service hours credit.

If you have a few hours free each week or one or two days free monthly, consider spending themwith Memphis seniors! Many of our volunteers have been helping our clients for decades. Many grew up accompanying their grandparents or parents, and now bring their children.

Volunteers must have reliable transportation, and the driver must have a current driver's license. If interested, please respond above and MIFA will email you the link to our volunteer application and training videos or you may visit our website for more information and fill out an application while there:https://community.mifa.org/mealsstarthere

***Please note that a background check IS required, and you must wait until the check is completed before coming in to deliver!

(Not available Monday-Wednesday but have some free time Thursday morning? If so, help MIFA's paid drive team deliver frozen boxes to our Meals on Wheels clients. Each route consists of 10-15 clients. After we process your application, let the volunteer team know you are interested in our Thursday opportunity.)
