Business Partnerships
Business community support has always been a major factor in the success of Meals on Wheels programs.
How can businesses support a Meals on Wheels program?
Corporate volunteers for advisory committees and agency board of directors provide needed expertise and direction.
Employee volunteers foster company esprit-de-corps while helping those in need.
Corporate donations are always welcome and are tax-deductible.
How can employees become involved?
To Volunteer: Companies and their employees can join our Meals On Wheels adopt-a-route program. It takes only 90 minutes during lunch time and two employees with access to a vehicle, to get started. The frequency of participation is tailored to fit your company's operations.
To Donate: Employees can choose Meals On Wheels Delaware as the recipient of individual or group employee donations. Funds may be donated to cover the cost of a specific number of meals for a homebound senior, and to support other program services.
Can someone come to tell my club, group or business about opportunities for volunteering?
Meals On Wheels Delaware has a speakers bureau that acts as a source for groups looking for someone with in-depth information on Meals on Wheels volunteering opportunities. Call (302) 656-3257, to request a speaker for your group.
Volunteers are the hearts and hands of the Meals On Wheels programs throughout Delaware. Their caring, dedicated, and generous help turns our goals into realities and our efforts into accomplishments.
For more information about volunteering please call 302-656-3257.
