Summer travel is in full swing, and Meals on Wheels of Greenville is facing a critical shortage of delivery volunteers. With 140+ routes to cover every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, they need help now more than ever.

The good news? You can help fill the gap. And you don’t have to do it alone. Grab a friend, coworker, or even your book club and spend your lunch break delivering nutritious meals to homebound neighbors.

You can get started by attending a quick volunteer orientation:

  • Virtual sessions are held every Thursday at 9:30 a.m. via Zoom.
  • Upcoming in-person sessions are on Thursday, July 10 at 5:30 p.m. + Tuesday, Aug. 12 at 9:30 a.m. at the Meals on Wheels office (15 Oregon St.).

Whether you go solo or as a group, just one hour of your time can make a big difference for a neighbor in need.
