Help Alleviate Senior Hunger by Volunteering with Us!
Hundreds of homebound seniors in our community rely on our meal delivery service every week. You can make a significant difference with just two hours of your time each week, delivering meals to seniors in the morning before 12 p.m. We need dedicated volunteers with a valid driver’s license, car insurance, and their own vehicle to commit to a regular weekly route. Currently, we have 46 routes across Buncombe County, each serving up to 16 seniors.
Current Open Routes In: Leicester, Fairview, and West Asheville.
