Opportunities From: East Tennessee State University

Can you donate an hour or two once a month to make a difference in your community? Do you enjoy knowing you have made a difference in someone’s life?

Then Meals on Wheels needs you! We depend on individuals like you to deliver a hot, nutrition meal to homebound seniors. Your smile and that meal may be the highlight of their day.

You can volunteer as little as once a month or you can volunteer once a week or more. Routes typically take an hour to an hour and a half. The average route has around 15-20 stops. Meals are delivered daily Monday through Friday (except for holidays) and meals can be picked between 9am-11am.

Offering up a small portion of your time can make a great impact on the people you will deliver to. They will appreciate your kindness and willingness to make sure they receive a meal. It may be the only hot, nutritious meal they have that day. You are also providing a welfare check as you may be the only person they see that day.

If you are interested in volunteering or learning more about this opportunity, please contact Sarah Simmons at 423-272-9186.

Remember not so long ago when everyone, except for essential workers, were stuck at home? What if that never ended for you. What if you were not able to get out of the home or to even cook your own meal? What if you had little to no family around and there you are unable to get out with others.

You can make a difference in people's lives. You can take a couple of hours out of your day to make a world of difference to someone homebound. Countless times we hear from recipients how they would not have a meal if it was not for volunteers bringing a meal to their door. Sometimes, the visit is also a welfare check; making sure that person is okay. You may brighten a person's whole day just by chatting with them for a few minutes. 

Won't you take a couple of hours out of your day to make a lifetime of difference to someone in need?
