A nutritious meal is something many of us take for granted. But for some older adults, access to healthy food can be a daily challenge.

That's why Meals on Wheels volunteers are so important. They help ensure that local homebound older adults receive the nourishment they need to stay healthy, maintain their independence, and continue living in the communities they call home. Behind every meal delivered is a volunteer helping to bridge that gap, providing not only nutritious food, but also a caring check-in and a connection to the community.

The impact goes far beyond a meal. It means supporting better health, reducing isolation, and giving older adults and their families peace of mind.

Right now, there is a critical need for Meals on Wheels volunteers throughout our service area. If you're looking for a meaningful way to give back, we'd love to have you join our team.

💙 If you are interested in volunteering, contact: Hyena Rose at 804-758-1260 Ext. 1314, or visit bayaging.org/volunteer-application

Bay Aging was proud to join community partners and neighbors for a day filled with helpful information, trusted resources, and meaningful connections focused on healthy and safe aging.

We’re especially grateful to Stanley Clarke and Mary Arthur, who both serve on the Ess*x SALT Council and help support ongoing collaboration to protect and empower older adults in Ess*x County.
