HOW TO VOLUNTEER FOR MEALS ON WHEELS
 1.    ADOPT A ROUTE
 
The Meal on Wheels Adopt-a-route program is an easy, yet effective way for companies, organizations, and churches to involve themselves in our local community. With as few as 4-5 people, a group can adopt a route and deliver meals one day a week. Or, 5 people could adopt 5 routes and deliver once a month.  Many participating groups feel the program improves camaraderie, by giving members the chance to work together on a project that serves the community. Please contact Daphne Palmer , 352-6737, or daphne.palmer@yahsc.com, for additional information.
