About Volunteering

A NEW, REWARDING EXPERIENCE AWAITS YOU!

Have you ever considered helping your community in a very powerful and satisfying way?  KenTon Meals on Wheels is looking for volunteers to assist with our Monday through Friday meal preparation or delivery.  But, not to worry! We can work around your schedule and be highly flexible with how you spend your volunteer time with us!  Here are some of the opportunities to help your community receive incredible meals prepared by our chef, staff, and volunteers:

• Kitchen Help: Our kitchen volunteers arrive at 7:00 AM and assist with meal preparation until 11:00 AM.  Some tasks involve assisting with cutting, mixing, putting items in containers or bags, assembling meals and putting meals into heated totes or coolers.
• Drivers: We have 20 routes which sometimes need coverage if a volunteer is unable to deliver their usual route. Drivers and servers arrive at the north parking lot at 169 Sheridan Parkside at 11:00 AM. With our contactless meal release, we will load your car with everything you need to deliver our delicious meals to our clients. Using an easy-to-follow route sheet, drivers deliver meals and then return the coolers and hot bags back to our facility once the route is completed, usually by 12:30 PM. On call volunteers are always needed!

Our staff and current army of volunteers would love for you to join them in their service with helping our Ken-Ton community. If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions before you decide to become a volunteer, please call Jennifer, our Volunteer Coordinator, at 716-874-3595.

We are excited about your consideration to volunteer with us at Ken-Ton Meals on Wheels and thank you for helping our neighbors in need!
