Job Description

Meals on Wheels West is looking for volunteers to make meal deliveries to clients in Pacific Palisades. While Pacific Palisades recovers from the fire, we have returning clients who need meal deliveries.

Why: No matter why a person is homebound - chronic illness, frailty, disability, recent surgery or other physical or mental health issues they face two major difficulties: poor nutrition and isolation. Meals on Wheels West volunteers help prevent both by Delivering More Than a Meal to homebound people of all ages and incomes. The nutritious meals and Wellness Checks that you deliver promote the stability, health, and wellness our our homebound, and often times lonely, community members.

Who: Meals on Wheels West provides nutritious meals and a daily visit to people who are homebound and unable to shop and cook for themselves on a permanent or temporary basis.

What to Expect:

You will be delivering nutritious meals and Wellness Checks to our homebound neighbors in Pacific Palisades.

The meals that you will deliver consist of hot lunches, cold trays, breakfast, milk, fruit, and frozen meals (on select days).

What's Required:

Weekly availability on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays between 10:45 am - 1:45 pm. A route takes approximately 1 - 2 hours to complete.

While we welcome any time you can give, we are especially seeking volunteers who can commit to serving with us on a consistent basis, such as weekly or every other week. This consistency helps us build stronger relationships with our clients and ensures the reliable support they depend on. However, we still appreciate those who can only volunteer occasionally and are grateful for your contributions whenever you’re able to serve your community.

If a volunteer has to cancel their shift, we expect them to make up the shift at a future date. This helps us continue to meet the needs of our clients without disruption. Please call or email staff to your availability or any changes in your volunteering schedule in advance.

Delivery volunteers must have a valid drivers license.

Volunteers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Adult volunteers must undergo a background check which can take up to a week.

Please note: All volunteers must complete the full onboarding process before coming to our office to volunteer. If you have not been in contact with our team, please wait until you receive confirmation and instructions.

Have Questions or Need Accommodation? Email the Opportunity Coordinator below.

Private Group Details:

  • Group Size Range: 1 - 50+
  • Event can be held at organization location(s)
