Examples of Volunteer Activities

We supply the postcards and coordinate getting the postcards to older Vermonters in our service area. This is a creative opportunity and can be done remotely. | ![]() Meals on Wheels DeliveryVolunteer with Meals on Wheels to deliver meals to homebound seniors once a week, with flexible options for more involvement. Commit to 1-3 hour shifts on the same day each week, particularly needed in rural areas. This fulfilling opportunity not only provides essential meals but also combats social isolation among seniors. | ![]() Food Pantry SupportYou can help at your local food pantry and make a meaningful impression on a person in need. You can volunteer once a week, stock shelves, sort food, help serve individuals, or help organize the operation. |
