Meals On Wheels, HAAM Partenring, Need Volunteers
Posted by Ernest Hauser
HAAM is “partnering together”
with Meals on Wheels to bring homebound seniors in our community nutritious meals.
Please contact Cathy Schrof at 281-446-3663 x 120 or email cschrof@haamministries.org for information
on how you can participate.
Exciting News: HAAM is partnering with Meals on Wheels to provide homebound seniors with nutritious meals for each week. And of course, I am looking for volunteers who could deliver the meals to our seniors. Since this is a new program for us, I will list the important information that I know as of today.
- Volunteers must provide current auto insurance/driver’s license
- Each volunteer will have to fill out a special meals on wheels volunteer application (just because a person fills out an application, does not mean they will be accepted)
- Submit form for a background check (it is unclear at this time whether the volunteer has to pay for the back ground check)
- Receive training prior to delivering meals
- Potential start date of April 1st to get this program going
- The volunteer drivers will pick up the meals in coolers at HAAM Social Services at or about 9:30a.m.
- Deliver the meals and then drop off the coolers at HAAM at the end of route
- There will be 2 routes in the Humble area
- Edward Jones volunteers will be assigned one Friday each month (4 volunteers needed: 2 volunteers each route*)
- *Recommend 2 volunteers per car per route; however it is not mandatory
The route should take approximately 1 hour or less.
