Meals On Wheels Program in Need of Volunteer Drivers

Citrus County's Meals On Wheels Program joins the National Meals On Wheels

Association of America with the goal that "no senior goes hungry". In order to ensure that

we are able to provide meals for homebound seniors here in Citrus County, we need volun-

teers!

Do you have a few hours a week to give of your time? If so, your local Meals

On Wheels Program could use your help! We deliver meals to seniors throughout Citrus

County around the lunchtime hours, Monday through Friday. We need volunteers who are

willing to give approximately 2 hours of their time, one day a week, to deliver meals to

seniors.

Each meal route consists of 10 to 20 stops, taking one to two hours to complete,

and you will even be reimbursed for your mileage. We are currently in need of drivers at

all of our meal delivery locations throughout Citrus County. For more information or to
