Nine million seniors face the threat of hunger, and millions more live along in isolation. With the senior population expected to double by 2060, we need you to join a new generation of Meals On Wheels volunteers today.

Baytown Meals On Wheels - Volunteer Inquiry
We are in need of delivery drivers to take on delivery routes across our community. Deliveries are made each day - Monday thru Friday during the hours of 11am and 1pm. Each volunteer would be signing up for a route to be delivered any number of days each week that make sense given the time you have available to volunteer. Please bring some type of empty ice chest, cooler or something that can be used to transport the meals while keeping them at an appropriate temperature.
Words From Our Volunteers
“I started doing Meals on Wheels on my off days because I wanted to give back to the community. I enjoyed going with my daughters before they were school aged, and the residents would always get the biggest kick out of visiting with them! It really would make their day to see their little faces when they opened their doors!”
"I had my first volunteer opportunity with a Meals on Wheels program back in 2018. I knew the experience would be impactful, but I didn't realize HOW impactful! On my second month of volunteering, I knocked on the door and the meal recipient did not answer, but I heard some noise coming from the room. After informing the building attendant about this unusual response, she was found ill and transported to the hospital. Had it not been for Meals on Wheels, she may not have survived. This was the moment that I truly understood the importance of Meals on Wheels—that it is more than just a meal, but also a lifeline and a safety check."
"I been volunteering with MOW for the past 4 years for community outreach and service. I realized volunteering and helping others bring a smile all the way around. This has also increased my self-confidence and passion for it. It makes my day when I can be there for others with a meal"
