At Meals on Wheels and More, volunteers are our most precious resource!
Now there are five ways you and your business, church, club, friends or organization can volunteer to help Austin 's well respected non-profit agency serve our homebound, elderly and disabled clients.
MEALS ON WHEELS
ONE LUNCH HOUR EACH WEEK
You can deliver hot, nutritious lunch-time meals to our clients who can no longer prepare balanced meals for themselves. Individual volunteers drive only one hour each week. Volunteer orientation is held every Thursday from 12:15 - 1:15 p.m., of as scheduled by the Volunteer Services Department.
GROCERIES TO GO
2 HOURS TWICE A MONTH - WEEKDAYS, EVENINGS OR WEEKENDS
A shopping friend can help our homebound clients do their weekly shopping. Volunteer twice a month to grocery shop for someone who needs your help.
MEDI WHEELS
2 TO 3 HOURS, USUALLY ONCE A WEEK
A Medi Wheels Volunteer transports our clients to and from their weekly doctor appointments.
CARE CALLS
5 MINUTES DAILY OR 20 MINUTES EACH WEEK
As a phone volunteer, you can provide our clients with either a well check call each day or a twice weekly friendly call and lend a kind ear.
HANDY WHEELS

Donate your time and talents by providing minor home safety repairs to the residences of the homebound.
